Surround Modes Applicable to the Various Software
Available Surround modes vary depending on the speaker settings and the incoming signals.
The table below shows the relation of the Surround modes and the incoming signals (with the Zone 2 speakers, surround back speakers, and
6.1-channel reproduction mode setting).
• The numbers inside the parentheses following the incoming signal type indicate the number of the front channels and that of the surround
channels. For example, (3/2) indicates that the signals are encoded with three front signals (left/right/center) and two (stereo) surround
signals.
