Tip

• When an Advanced Surround listening mode is

selected (except

ADV.VIR. SURR.

), the effect level

can be adjusted using the

EFFECT

parameter in

Setting the AV options

on page 57.

Listening in stereo

When you select

STEREO

, you will hear the source

through just the front left and right speakers (and
possibly your subwoofer depending on your speaker
settings). Dolby Digital, DTS and WMA9 Pro
multichannel sources are downmixed to stereo.

While listening to a source, press

STEREO

for stereo

playback.

Using Stream Direct

Use the Stream Direct modes when you want to hear the
truest possible reproduction of a source. All unnecessary
signal processing is bypassed, and you’re left with the
pure analog or digital sound source (see

Stream direct

with different input signal formats

on page 77).

1

While listening to a source, press S.DIRECT

(

AUTO SURR

/

STREAM DIRECT

)

to select the mode

you want.

Check the digital format indicators in the front panel
display to see how the source is being processed.

AUTO SURROUND

– See

Auto playback

on page 26.

DIRECT

– Sources are heard according to the

settings made in the Surround Setup (speaker
setting, channel level, speaker distance, acoustic
calibration EQ, and X-curve), as well as with dual
mono, the input attenuator, and any sound delay and
hi-bit/hi-sampling settings. You will hear sources
according to the number of channels in the signal.

PURE DIRECT

– Analog sources are heard without

any digital processing. No sound is output from the
Second Zone in this mode.

Selecting MCACC presets

If you have calibrated your system for different listening

video game close to the TV).

While listening to a source, press

MCACC

.

Press repeatedly to select one of the six MCACC presets

or to switch calibration off. See
