Mode by pressing the Menu Button and selecting “Photo/Manual”.
Then use the controls on the iPhone or iPod touch to run the appli-
cation. Due to the wide variety of applications and many factors
affecting them, playback is not guaranteed.

SELECTING A SURROUND MODE
Surround mode selection can be as simple or sophisticated as your
individual system and tastes. Feel free to experiment, and you may
find a few favorites for certain sources or program types. More
detailed information on surround modes may be found in the
Advanced Functions section.
To select a surround mode, press the Surround Modes Button
(front panel or remote). The Surround Modes menu will appear
(see Figure 29). Use the 5/1 Buttons repeatedly until the desired
surround mode category appears: Auto Select, Virtual Surround,
Stereo, Movie, Music or Video Game. Press the OK Button to
change the type’s surround mode.
Figure 29 – Surround Modes Menu
Auto Select: For digital programs, such as movies recorded
with a Dolby Digital soundtrack, the AVR will automatically use the
native surround format. For 2-channel analog and PCM programs,
the AVR uses Logic 7 Movie, Music or Game mode, depending on
the source.
Virtual Surround: When only two main speakers are present
in the system, Harman Virtual Surround may be used to create an
enhanced sound field that virtualizes the missing speakers. Select
between Wide and Reference modes.
Stereo: When 2-channel playback is desired, select the number
of speakers used for playback:
• 2 CH STEREO uses only two speakers. As described on page 35,
you may select Analog Bypass mode for a pure analog signal
when analog audio inputs are in use. Turn off the Tone Control
setting in the Audio Effects submenu, and the AVR does the rest.
