Listening with virtual surround back
speakers
• Default setting:
VIRTL SB OFF
If you don’t have real surround back speakers connected,
you can use the Virtual Surround Back feature to
simulate one.
Sometimes the material may sound better in the 5.1
format for which it was originally encoded. In this case
you can have the receiver only apply this effect to 6.1
encoded sources like Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES (
VIRTL
SB AUTO
), or you can simply switch it off (
VIRTL SB OFF
).
For stereo sources, you’ll have to select one of the
NEO:6
modes or an advanced effect mode (see
Listening in
surround sound
on page 38) to use the Virtual Surround
Back feature.
Note that this feature only works when the surround
channels are active and the surround back speaker is set
to
NO
in
Speaker Setting
on page 55.
