Activating the Surround Modes
Available Surround modes vary depending on the speaker settings
and the incoming signals. (See page 36.)
Activating one of the Surround modes for a source automatically
recalls the memorized settings and adjustments (see pages 25 to
33.)
You can also use the buttons on the remote control for the same
functions.
Activating the EX/ES setting
For multi-channel digital software, you can activate the EX/ES (7.1-
channel) reproduction mode.
• Once you have set EX/ES (7.1-channel) reproduction mode, it is
stored in memory and will be called up whenever you activate the
Surround mode which the memorized EX/ES (7.1-channel)
reproduction mode can be applied to.
Press EX/ES to select an appropriate setting for your enjoyment.
The currently selected EX/ES (7.1-channel) reproduction mode
appears on the display.
• Each time you press the button, it changes as follows:
EX/ES AUTO*: According to the incoming signal, an
appropriate Surround mode is applied.
• For Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES,
EX/ES (7.1-channel) reproduction is
applied.
• For 5.1-channel (or less) encoded
software, 5.1-channel reproduction is
applied.
EX/ES ON*: Select to apply EX/ES (7.1-channel)
reproduction to both 5.1-channel and 6.1-
channel encoded software.
EX/ES OFF: Select to cancel the EX/ES (7.1-channel)
reproduction.
*
If the surround back speakers are not connected or deactivated,
Virtual 6.1-channel surround is applied.
Notes:
• When Surround mode is deactivated, pressing EX/ES will
activate an appropriate Surround mode for the current source.
• When an analog or digital 2-channel source is playing, you can
adjust the EX/ES (7.1-channel) reproduction mode and store
the setting, but it will not affect the current source.
• When the source is one to which the EX/ES (7.1-channel)
reproduction cannot be applied, you can adjust the setting and
store in memory, but reproduction channels will remain
unchanged.

MULTI.”
• Make sure you have selected the analog or digital input mode.

to “AUTO” or “ON,” one of the EX/ES (7.1-channel)
reproduction modes will be activated (see the left column).
