Selecting the Sound Field
You can enjoy surround sound simply by
selecting one of the pre-programmed sound
fields according to the program you want to
listen to. You will get such presence that you
will have the illusion that you are in a movie
theater or concert hall while you are in your
own room.
See the table on the next page for the details
on each sound field.
Press SOUND FIELD repeatedly until
the sound field you want appears on
the display window.
Each time you press SOUND FIELD, the
sound field mode is selected and displayed
in the following order.
AFD (AUTO FORMAT DECODE)

The system memorizes the last sound field
selected for each source component selected by the
FUNCTION button (Sound Field Link).
When you select an audio/video component by the
FUNCTION button, the sound field that was last
applied for the component is automatically applied.
For example, suppose you select the “DVD”
connected to the OPTICAL jack and select MOVIE
as the sound field, then switch to COAX (COAXIAL)
by the FUNCTION button and select MUSIC as the
sound field. If you switch to OPT (OPTICAL) again,
MOVIE will be applied as the sound field.

You can identify the encoding format of program
software by looking at its packaging.

– Dolby Surround encoded programs are labeled with
the
logo.
– DTS Digital Surround discs are marked with DTS.
Note
When you play sound tracks with 96 kHz sampling
frequency, the output signals will be converted to 48
kHz sampling frequency.
