SW:
Lights up when sub woofer selection is
set to “YES” and the receiver detects that the
disc being played back does not contain the
LFE channel signal. While this indicator
lights up, the receiver creates a sub woofer
signal based on the low frequency
components of the front channels.
2
Playback channel indicators:
The letters
(L, C, R, etc.) indicate the channels being
played back. The boxes around the letters
vary to show how the receiver downmixes the
source sound (based on the speakers settings).
When using sound fields like “DIGITAL
CONCERT HALL”, the receiver adds
reverberation based on the source sound.
L (Front Left), R (Front Right), C (Center
(monaural)), SL (Surround Left), SR
(Surround Right), S (Surround (monaural or
the surround components obtained by Pro
Logic processing)), SB (Surround Back (the
surround back components obtained by
6.1 matrix decoding))
Example:
Recording format (Front /Surround): 3/2
Output channel: Surround speakers absent
Sound Field: A.F.D.

PRO LOGIC:
Lights up when the receiver
applies Pro Logic processing to 2 channel
signals in order to output the center and
surround channel signals. For STR-DA5ES,
this indicator also lights when the Pro Logic II
movie/music decoder is in active. However,
this indicator does not light if the center and
surround speakers are set to “NO”, and
“A.F.D.” or “NORMAL SURROUND” is
selected.

Lights up when a sound field
other than “2CH” is selected and the receiver
