Example: The unit makes output through front speakers, the center speaker, surround speakers, and the subwoofer when you play

5.1-channel sources. Surround back speakers go silent.

• The MULTI CH SURROUND effect goes off when the input source contains the 192 kHz PCM signal.
• The number of source channels appears on the display when you switch input sources. (Their number may not appear depending on

the selected source.)

24 bits. The 96 kHz/24 bit high frequency sounds are played
through multiple channels.
