Tip

selected, the effect level can be adjusted using the
EFFECT
parameter in
Setting the Audio options
on
page 68.
Listening in stereo
When you select

Press repeatedly to switch between:
•
STEREO

settings and you can still use the Midnight,
Loudness, and Tone functions.

Advance
below for more on this.
•
F.S.SURR WIDE
– See
Using Front Stage Surround
Advance

Using Front Stage Surround Advance
The Front Stage Surround Advance function allows you
to create natural surround sound effects using just the

effect to a wider area than

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 92).
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 29.
•
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.
