The receiver memorizes the last sound field selected for each
program source (Sound Field Link)
Whenever you select a program source, the sound field that was
last applied is automatically applied again. For example, if you
listen to CD with STADIUM as the sound field, change to
different program source, then return to CD, STADIUM will be
applied again. In the case of the tuner, the sound fields for AM or
FM band and for all the preset stations are memorized separately.

You can identify Dolby Surround-encoded software by
looking at the packaging
Some videos and laser discs, however, may be encoded with
Dolby Surround sound even if it’s not indicated on the package.
Notes
• When using sound fields, do not select both speakers (A+B)
with the SPEAKERS selector.
• Sound fields are turned off whenever the program source
connected to the 5.1/DVD INPUT jacks is selected.
