Using the Surround Back
Channel (SB CH)
(VSX-D714/D814 only)
• Default setting: SB ON (VSX-D814), SB
OFF (VSX-D714)
You can use automatic 6.1 decoding for 6.1
encoded sources (for example, Dolby Digital
EX or DTS-ES), or you can choose to always
use 6.1 decoding with other sources (for
example, 5.1 encoded material). With 5.1
encoded sources, a surround back channel
will be generated, but the material may sound
better in the 5.1 format for which it was origi-
nally encoded, in which case you can simply
switch the surround back channel off. The
table below indicates when you will hear the
surround back channel.
• Press SB CH MODE (front panel) to
select a surround back channel option.
Each press cycles through the options as
follows:
• SB CH AUTO – Automatically switches to
6.1 decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (for
example, Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES)
• SB CH ON – 6.1 encoding is always used
(for example, on 5.1 encoded material)
• SB CH OFF – Surround back channel is
switched off
• You can’t use the surround back channel
with headphones, the STEREO / DIRECT
mode, or if the Surround back speaker
setting on page 46 is set to SB or (VSX-
D814 only) SB SW .
• You can’t hear the surround back channel
with DTS 96kHz/24 bit sources.
