Outputting the sound from
multiple speakers
x AUTO FORMAT DIRECT MULTI
This mode lets you enjoy audio playback of all
types of discs from multiple speakers.
• The sound is not output from multiple speakers
depending on the source.
• Depending on the disc or source, the beginning of the
sound may be cut off as the optimum mode is
automatically selected. To avoid cutting the sound,
select “A.F.D. STD.”
Outputting 2 channel sources
like CDs by 5.1channel
x Dolby Pro Logic II MOVIE/MUSIC
Dolby Pro Logic II produces five full-bandwidth
output channels from 2 channel sources. This is
done using an advanced, high-purity matrix
surround decoder that extracts the spatial
properties of the original recording without
adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
• When the input signal is multi channel source, Dolby
Pro Logic II MOVIE/MUSIC are canceled and the
multi channel source is output directly.
• When the bilingual broadcast sound is input, Dolby
Pro Logic II MOVIE/MUSIC are not effective.
Enjoying the sound effects
x SPORTS
This mode produces clear play-by-play
commentary and realistic sound with surround
effects, such as cheering, etc.
x NEWS
This mode produces the clear announcer’s voice.
x PORTABLE AUDIO ENHANCER
This mode reproduces a clear enhanced sound
image from your portable audio device. This
mode is ideal for MP3 and other compressed
music.
• Multi channel Linear PCM is not available for “P.
AUDIO.”
x OMNI-DIRECTIONAL SOUND
This mode reproduces the stereo effect
everywhere surrounding by five satellite
speakers.
To turn the surround effect off
Press SOUND FIELD repeatedly until “A.F.D.
STD” appears in the top panel display.
• The sound fields memorized for each input are
retained even if you disconnect the AC power cord
(mains lead).
Whenever you select a function such as “DVD” or
“TUNER,” the sound field that was last applied to
function is automatically applied again. For example,
if you listen to DVD with Dolby Pro Logic II MOVIE
as the sound field, then change to another function,
and then return to DVD, Dolby Pro Logic II MOVIE
will be applied again.
