Playback Modes
Selecting a Listening Mode
Choose a listening mode that suits the soundtrack you are listening to or achieves the effect you want, as explained
on the previous page. It will probably be necessary for you to experiment with different modes until you find ones
which suit your tastes.
1 Press AUTO, SURROUND or ADVANCED.
2 If you choose one of the latter two, cycle
through the modes using the SURROUND or the
ADVANCED button and select the one suits the
soundtrack you’re listening to.
Refer to page 33 for more details about each listening
mode.
The default setting is AUTO. With headphones the
default setting is STEREO.
You can only select the STEREO or PHONES SUR-
ROUND mode when headphones are plugged into the
headphone jack.
The listening mode you choose with headphones is fully
independent of the listening mode with speakers.
If you disconnect the headphones while in PHONES
SURROUND mode the receiver will return to the
listening mode it was in before you selected PHONES
SURROUND.
When inputting a 96 kHz PCM signal you can only use
STEREO listening modes.
If you are in a different mode than STEREO and then
input a 96 kHz PCM signal the receiver will automati-
cally switch to AUTO.
Each playback component can be set independently and
retains its sound mode when another component is
being used.
If you did not connect center and surround speakers you
can only choose VIRTUAL or STEREO in SURROUND
mode.

TV SURROUND
This mode produces surround sound even for mono or stereo TV sources. It is useful for old movies. A mono TV
signal will be able to approximate the effect of overall surround sound.
GAME
Use this mode when playing a video game. It works especially well with sound moving from left to right in such
software as racing games, shooting games, and those kind of games with movement in them.
VIRTUAL Surround Back (VIRTL SB)
This mode is especially designed to simulate surround back channels for sources that don’t have them. It emulates the
effect of surround back speakers in your listening space.
EXPANDED
This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to Dolby Surround sources. The overall effect expands the
sound, giving a dynamic and broad sound to these sources while allowing a faithful reproduction of five speaker
sound.
5-CH STEREO (5 STEREO)
This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to Stereo sources. The overall effect builds a dynamic and
broad sound space, allowing a reproduction with five speakers.
