will not be possible depending on the
source (for example, PCM 88.2 / 96kHz,
DTS 96kHz (24 bit) or WMA 9 Pro sources).

There are many ways to listen back to sources
using this receiver, but for the simplest, most
direct listening option is the Auto Surround

detects what kind of source you’re playing and
selects multichannel or stereo playback as
necessary.
