Neo:6 Music (MUSIC)
This mode gives 6.1 channel surround sound
and is suitable for music. The Neo:6 Music
mode plays the stereo source as is through
the front left/right speakers, and generates a
natural, ambient surround and center sound.
Advanced Surround modes
These are designed to be used with multi-
channel surround sound audio/visual
sources (like DVDs and LDs). Most Advanced
Surround modes are designed to be used with
film soundtracks, but some modes are also
suited for music sources. Try different
settings with various soundtracks to see
which you like.
Depending on the source and the sound
mode you have selected, you may not get
sound from the surround back speakers
in your setup. For more on this, refer to
Using the Virtual Surround Back mode
(VSB)
on page 40 and
Using the Surround
Back Channel (SB CH)
on page 39.

for a wider stereo field than the
