]

for at least 2 seconds.

If [

] is pressed during setting, the unit returns to the previous

item.

For linear PCM, the front signals are sent to the rear channel even if

the system is set up for “Stereo.”

“Rear Fill” function

Depending on the input signals, the sound may only be output from
the front speakers. In this case, the “Rear Fill” function can be used
to output signals from the rear speakers as well.

If the setting of Rear Fill is made when Rear Mix is ON, sound is

unchanged in the rear fill setting because Rear Mix is given priority
during 2 channel decoder other than linear PCM.

When both Rear and Center speakers are off in “Setting the Speaker

System (System Select)” (page 37)/“Setting the Speakers (Speaker
Setup)” (page 38), this item cannot be set.

After the setting, it is recommended to store the setting contents on

the unit. For details, refer to “Storing the Preset Values (Preset
Store)” (page 36).

Setting EUPHONY (EUPHONY)

EUPHONY creates 5.1 channel surround using Adaptive Surround
technology based on a music signal recorded in 2-channel.
When you set up EUPHONY and play back a CD or iPod stereo source,
you can enjoy the realistic sensation of musicians playing around you.
For DVD movie playback, you can enjoy the sense of localization of the
dialogue and impressive three-dimensional sound effects.
In this setting, EUPHONY Mode can be selected. (Initial setting:
“ACOUSTIC”)
