intended for music playback, whereas the 

CINE

 mode is intended for Cinematic use.  In all 3 Circle Surround 

modes, the center channel operates dynamically in order to avoid collapsing any stereo imaging that may be 
present toward the center channel.  This works to maintain a wide left/right sound field in the front channels.  
All Circle Surround modes provide multi-band left/right steering in the surround channels. 

 

When the source music is Circle encoded, the intended mode is Circle 

ENC

, leaving the 

NON-EN

 mode for 

non Circle encoded music.  

CINE

 is a non-encoded mode that is intended to be used for mono, stereo or 

matrixed film sources. 

 

Circle Surround operates effectively with both encoded and non-encoded material, and allows the processing 
of the front left/right and center channels as well as full bandwidth of the left and right surrounds. Please refer 
to page 64 for additional Circle Surround setup options, selectable in the second page of the 

SETUP

submenu.

After selecting a temporary mode for the current input channel, pressing the
