Selecting a Surround Mode
Surround mode selection can be as simple or sophisticated as your
individual system and tastes. Feel free to experiment with the many
available surround modes on the AVR 154, and you may find a few that
become your favorites for certain sources or program types. Although
more detailed information on surround modes may be found in the
Advanced Functions section, it is easy to select any of the modes
available at a given time:
To select a surround mode using the front-panel controls, press the
Surround Mode Button repeatedly until the desired group of modes is
selected: Logic 7, Dolby, DTS, DSP or Stereo. Then press the Surround
Select Button repeatedly to select the desired mode within the group.
See Figure 62.

To select a surround mode using the remote control, locate the button
dedicated to the desired group of modes: Logic 7, Dolby Sur, DTS Sur,
DTS Neo:6, Surr (DSP) or Stereo. Press that button repeatedly to select
the desired mode. See Figure 63.

To select a surround mode using the full-OSD menu system, press the
OSD Button to display the Master Menu. Navigate to the SURROUND
SELECT line and press the OK Button to view the Surround Select menu
(see Figure 64 on page 40). Each of the major surround mode groups
is listed here. Select a group to access the MODE setting for selection of
an individual mode. As explained in the Advanced Functions section,
there are also some additional settings that may be made.
You are now ready to enjoy the best in home theater entertainment with
your AVR 154. As you become more familiar with the receiver, you may
