Tip
• When an Advanced Surround listening mode is
selected (except
ADV. VIR. SURR.
), the effect level
can be adjusted using the
EFFECT
parameter in
Setting the AV options
on page 66.
Listening in stereo
When you select
STEREO
, you will hear the source
through just the front left and right speakers (and
possibly your subwoofer depending on your speaker
settings). Dolby Digital and DTS multichannel sources
are downmixed to stereo.
• While listening to a source, press
STEREO
for stereo
playback.
Using Stream Direct
Use the Stream Direct modes when you want to hear the
truest possible reproduction of a source. All unnecessary
signal processing is bypassed, and you’re left with the
pure analog or digital sound source (see
Stream direct
with different input signal formats
on page 88).
1 While listening to a source, press S.DIRECT
(
AUTO SURR
/
STREAM DIRECT
)
to select the mode
you want.
Check the digital format indicators in the front panel
display to see how the source is being processed.
•
AUTO SURROUND
– See
Auto playback
on page 27.
•
DIRECT
– Sources are heard according to the
settings made in the Surround Setup (speaker
setting, channel level, speaker distance, acoustic
calibration EQ, and X-curve), as well as with dual
mono, the input attenuator, and any sound delay and
hi-bit/hi-sampling settings. You will hear sources
according to the number of channels in the signal.
•
PURE DIRECT
– Analog and PCM sources are heard
without any digital processing.
1
No sound is output
from the Second Zone in this mode.
Selecting MCACC presets
• Default setting:
MEMORY 1
If you have calibrated your system for different listening
positions
2
, you can switch between settings to suit the
kind of source you’re listening to and where you’re sitting
(for example, watching movies from a sofa, or playing a
video game close to the TV).
• While listening to a source, press
MCACC
(
MCACC
POSITION
).
Press repeatedly to select one of the six MCACC presets
3
or to switch calibration off. See
Data Management
on
page 42 to check and manage your current settings.

1 There are cases where a brief noise is heard before playback of sources other than PCM. Please select
AUTO SURROUND
or
DIRECT
if this is a problem.
2 Different presets might also have separate calibration settings for the same listening position, depending on how you’re using your system. These pre-
sets can be set in
Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)
on page 7 or
Automatic MCACC (Expert)
on page 34, either of which you should
have already completed.
3 You can’t use these settings when
