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 surround back speakers and EX/ES 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.

3D HEADPHONE Mode—3D H PHONE
You can also enjoy the Surround modes through the headphones.
If you press SURROUND when the front speakers 1 and 2 are both deactivated, 3D HEADPHONE mode (3D H PHONE) is activated
without respect to the type of software played back. “3D H PHONE” appears on the display and the DSP and HEADPHONE indicators
also light up.

Virtual 6.1-channel surround
If you have connected (and activated) the surround speakers, you can use Virtual 6.1-channel surround when playing back Dolby Digital
EX or DTS-ES software without connecting the surround back speakers. This surround reallocates the surround back channel to the
surround speakers so that you can still feel the great surround effect from behind. The VIRTUAL SB (Surround Back) indicator lights up
on the display.

DTS 96/24 processing is not
applied. If you want to apply
the processing, set the EX/ES
