Understanding the multi channel
surround displays (continued)
qh Playback channel indicators: The letters
(L, C, R, etc.) indicate the channels being
played back. The boxes around the letters
vary to show how the receiver downmixes the
source sound (based on the speakers settings).
When using sound fields like “CINEMA
ST.EX”, the receiver adds reverberation based
on the source sound.
L (Front Left), R (Front Right), C (Center
(monaural)), SL (Surround Left), SR
(Surround Right), S (Surround (monaural or
the surround components obtained by Pro
Logic processing)), SB (Surround Back (the
surround back components obtained by 6.1
matrix decoding)), SBL (Surround Back
Left), SBR (Surround Back Right)
Example:
Recording format (Front/Surround): 3/2
Output channel: Surround speakers absent
Sound Field: A.F.D. AUTO
qj
LFE
: Lights up when the disc being played
back contains the LFE (Low Frequency
Effect) channel. When the sound of the LFE
channel signal is actually being reproduced,
the bars underneath the letters light up to
indicate the level. Since the LFE signal is not
recorded in all parts of the input signal, the
bar indication will fluctuate (and may turn
off) during playback.
qk SW: Lights up when sub woofer selection is
set to “YES” (page 20) and the audio signal is
output from the SUB WOOFER jacks.
Customizing sound fields
By adjusting the surround parameters and the
equalization of the front speakers, you can
customize the sound fields to suit your
particular listening situation.
Once you customize a sound field, the changes
are stored in the memory indefinitely. You can
change a customized sound field any time by
making new adjustments to the parameters.
See the tables on page 75 for the parameters
available in each sound field.
To get the most from multi
channel surround sound
Position your speakers and do the procedures
described in “Multi channel surround setup”
starting from page 19 before you customize a
sound field.
Note on the displayed items
The setup items you can adjust in each menu
vary depending on the sound field. Certain
setup parameters may be dimmed in the
display. This means that the selected parameter
is either unavailable or fixed and unchangeable.
