to hear the truest possible reproduction of a
source. All unnecessary signal processing is
bypassed, and you’re left with the pure analog
or digital sound source.

, then press AUTO/ALC/DIRECT to

select the mode you want.

ALC – Listening in Auto level control mode
(page 56).

DIRECT – Plays back sound from source
with the least modification next to

PURE

DIRECT. With DIRECT, the only
modifications added to

PURE DIRECT

playback are calibration of the sound field
by the MCACC system and the Phase
Control effect.

PURE DIRECT – Plays back unmodified
sound from source with only minimal
digital treatment. No sound is output from
the Speaker B in this mode.

Note

1 When using

F.S.SURR WIDE, a better effect can be obtained if the Full Auto MCACC procedure under Advanced

MCACC is performed. For more on this, refer to Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on
page 37.
