Using the Advanced surround effects
The Advanced surround effects can be used for a variety of additional surround sound effects. Most Advanced
Surround modes are designed to be used with film soundtracks, but some modes are also suited for music
sources. Try different settings with various soundtracks to see which you like.
% Press ADV (ADVANCED SURROUND) repeatedly to select a listening mode.
! ACTION – Designed for action movies with dynamic soundtracks
! DRAMA – Designed for movies with lots of dialog
! ADVANCED GAME – Suitable for video games
! SPORTS – Suitable for sports programs
! CLASSICAL – Gives a large concert hall-type sound
! ROCK/POP – Creates a live concert sound for rock and/or pop music
! EXT.STEREO – Gives multichannel sound to a stereo source, using all of your speakers
! F.S.SURROUND – Use to provide a rich surround sound effect directed to the center of where the front left and
right speakers sound projection area converges.

! SOUND RETRIEVER AIR – Suitable for listening to the sound from a Bluetooth wireless technology device. The
SOUND RETRIEVER AIR listening mode can only be selected when the BT AUDIO input.
! PHONES SURR – When listening through headphones, you can still get the effect of overall surround.
! ECO MODE 1 – Select this to play for example music that has a high audio level with a lower power consump-
tion than usual.
! ECO MODE 2 – Select this to play movies, etc., with a high ratio of low volume scenes and high volume scenes
(a large dynamic ratio) with a lower power consumption than usual. This mode provides greater power savings
than ECO MODE 1.
Notes
! The Front Stage Surround Advance (F.S.SURROUND) function allows you to create natural surround sound
effects using just the front speakers and the subwoofer.
! When ECO MODE 1 or ECO MODE 2 is selected, the front panel’s display lights with the dimmest brightness.
! Since ECO MODE 1 and ECO MODE 2 reduce the power consumption, the speakers are switched in function
of the number of input channels. Because of this, a speaker switching sound (clicking sound) may be pro-
duced when the number of input channels is switched. If this bothers you, switch to a different listening mode.
! When using headphones, SOUND RETRIEVER AIR (only with the BT AUDIO input), PHONES SURR,
ECO MODE 1 and ECO MODE 2 can be selected.
! When the Dolby Atmos content is played, the Advanced Surround mode cannot be selected.
Using Stream Direct
Use the Stream Direct modes when you want to hear the truest possible reproduction of a source. All unneces-
sary signal processing is bypassed, and you’re left with the pure analog or digital sound source.
Processing differs depending on the input signal and whether or not surround back speakers are connected. For
details, see Auto Surround, ALC and Stream Direct with different input signal formats on page 127 .
% While listening to a source, press AUTO (AUTO SURR/ALC/STREAM DIRECT) to select the
mode you want.
Check the digital format indicators in the front panel display to see how the source is being processed.
! AUTO SURROUND – See Auto playback on page 64 .
! ALC – Listening in Auto level control mode (page 64 ).
When ALC is selected, the effect level can be adjusted using the EFFECT parameter in Setting the Audio
options on page 79 .
! DIRECT – Plays back sound from the 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 sys-
tem and the Phase Control effect.
! PURE DIRECT – Plays back unmodified sound from source with only minimal digital treatment.
! OPTIMUM SURR – Listening in Optimum Surround mode (page 64 ).
Notes
! When listening through headphones, you can select ALC, OPTIMUM SURR or PURE DIRECT mode only.
! When the Dolby Atmos content is played, ALC and OPTIMUM SURR cannot be selected.
About Dolby Atmos
This AV receiver supports the latest Dolby Atmos surround sound system. Dolby Atmos is a new technology in
which, through real time calculation of audio data and meta data (position and time information) included in the
audio signal, a surround sound space is achieved irrespective of the speaker layout and number of speakers.
In order to enjoy Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos-compatible content is required. Dolby Atmos content on Dolby
Atmos-compatible Blu-ray Discs can be played back on most conventional Blu-ray players by sending the Dolby
Atmos bitstream to the AVR.
For details on Dolby Atmos, see page 131 .
Note
When playing Dolby Atmos content, the program format indicator does not light (page 15 ).
