Selecting a Sound Mode
To ensure the best possible surround sound, be sure to complete the set up procedures described in “Setting
Up for Surround Sound” (starting on page 27) before using the sound modes. This is particularly important when
using the
2 (Dolby) Digital or DTS sources. When using the sound modes, using SPEAKERS A will give the
best results. If you use SPEAKERS B, the sound will be down mixed to the two front B speakers and the
surround sound effect will be lost.
