Enjoying the Front Surround
Sound System
You can enjoy two types of front surround
sound, FOCUS SURROUND or WIDE
STAGE, depending on the listening area.
x FOCUS SURROUND
This mode is ideal for delivering a realistic
surround effect to a small group of listeners
within a defined area.
x WIDE STAGE
This mode will deliver a wide and impressive
sound stage. As the sound catchment area is
increased, a greater number of listeners can be
accommodated.

x 2 CH STEREO
This mode outputs 2 channel sound regardless of
the audio signal type being input.

would in a movie theatre, even at low volume.
Useful for watching movies at night.

signals or Dolby Digital multiplex broadcast signals,
the default AUTO setting is FOCUS SURROUND.

in AMP MENU.)
• When the system receives CDs or DATA CDs, the
AUTO setting is 2CH STEREO.
• The sound field for Super Audio CDs is 2CH
STEREO only.
• The surround effect might be difficult to hear
depending on the type of source signals (e.g., digital
stereo signals, digital multi signals, etc.) except for
DVD multi-channel signals.
• Even if you select “WIDE STAGE,” the surround
effect does not work when you play a CD or DATA
CD, listen to the radio (FM/AM), or select the
AUDIO function.
