“SAT1(2)” (depending on what you set in the AMP
MENU, see page 73) appears in the front panel display.

want appears in the front panel display.
When you use a digital connection (COAXIAL or OPTICAL)
and the selected sound field is AUTO, you can enjoy multi-
channel signals with the front surround sound (default setting
is FOCUS SURROUND). Even when you use a digital
connection and the selected sound field is AUTO (FOCUS

system will still only output 2-channel sound.
When you use an analogue connection and the selected sound
field is AUTO, the system outputs 2-channel stereo signals.
