MODE FEATURES
5-Channel Stereo This mode takes advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room. Depending on whether the AVR
7-Channel Stereo has been configured for either 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 operation, one of these modes, but not both, is available at any time. Ideal for playing music in
situations such as a party, it places the same signal at the front-left and surround-left, and front-right and surround-right speakers. The center
channel is fed a summed mono mix of the in-phase material of the left and right channels.
Surround Off (Stereo) This mode turns off all surround processing and presents the pure left- and right-channel presentation of 2-channel stereo programs. When used
with an analog audio source, you may select between a digitized Surround Off mode, in which the incoming signal is digitized and any bass man-
agement settings are applied, or an analog bypass Surround Off mode, in which the incoming signal is passed directly to the volume control and a
full-range signal is sent to your left and right main speakers.
