Favorite audio listening mode continued
Setting a favorite listening mode here will not prevent the system from automatically adjusting the listening mode
in response to bitstream information, nor will it prevent the user from changing modes during normal operation. It
is merely the mode that is chosen when that input is initially selected and no additional bitstream information is
available. You can use the favorite Mode/Speakers along with the system’s intelligence to arrive at your optimum
listening modes while seldom needing to manually set modes. For example, you use a DVD player to play music
CDs and DVD movies. You may prefer to listen to music CDs in their original 2-channel stereo, while you prefer
Dolby Digital and DTS DVDs in 6-channel (“EX”) mode. First select Favorite mode and set to Surround and then
select Favorite speakers and set to 6. Next select Favorite mode and set to Stereo and then select Favorite
speakers and set to 2. Your system will now automatically playback PCM (2-channel bitstreams) CDs in two-
channel stereo and Dolby Digital or DTS DVDs in Surround 6. And if you temporarily want a different mode, you
can still change it during normal system operation.
