Auto listening mode
The Auto listening mode is the simplest way to
listen to any source as it was mastered: the
output from the speakers mirrors the channels
in the source material.
• If you set up the system for Front surround
(page 10), the Front Surround modes will
give the best results.
• Press
SURROUND
to select the AUTO
listening mode.

to select ‘C WIDTH’, ‘DIMEN.’ or
‘PANORAMA’ then press
ENTER
to confirm.
• C WIDTH (Center Width) – Provides a
better blend of the front speakers by
spreading the center channel between the
front right and left speakers, making it
sound wider (higher settings) or narrower
(lower settings).
• DIMEN. (Dimension) – Adjusts the depth
of the surround sound balance from front
to back, making the sound more distant
(minus settings), or more forward (positive
settings).
• PANORAMA – Extends the front stereo
image to include the surround speakers for
a ‘wraparound’ effect.
Note
1 If the source is Dolby Digital or DTS, the corresponding indicator lights in the front panel display.
2 Note that when the tuner is selected, multichannel playback is not possible.
