Selecting a 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.
Using only the front speakers
(2 Channels Stereo)
Press SOUND FIELD +/– repeatedly to
select "2CH ST.".
This mode outputs the sound from the front left
and right speakers only. Standard 2 channel
(stereo) sources completely bypass the sound
field processing. Multi channel surround
formats are downmixed to 2 channel.
Notes
• No sound is output from the sub woofer when
"2CH ST." is selected. To listen to 2 channel
(stereo) sources using the front left and right
speakers and a sub woofer, press A.F.D. to select
"A.F.D. AUTO".
• When you select "Micro Satellite Speaker" (page
14), internal sound processor will automatically
redirect bass sound to subwoofer. If you want to
listen to two channel (stereo) sources under this
setting, we recommend that you choose "A.F.D.
AUTO" mode so that you can take advantage of
your sub woofer to obtain the correct bass signal.
Selecting other sound fields
Press SOUND FIELD +/– repeatedly to
select the sound field you want.
The current sound field is indicated in the
display. See pages 21–22 for information on
each sound field.
