Using the surround back channel
(Extended mode)

• Default setting:

EXT. ON

You can have the receiver automatically use 6.1
or 7.1 decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (for
example, Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES), or you
can choose to always use 6.1 or 7.1 decoding
(for example, with 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
originally encoded (in which case, you can

simply switch the Extended mode off).
