Auto listening mode

The Auto listening mode is the simplest way to
listen to any source as it was mastered: the
output from the speakers mirrors the channels
in the source material.

(page 8), the Front Stage Surround modes
will give the best results (page 29).

indicator will light. The 2D indicator will

sources in surround sound. Surround sound is
generated from stereo sources using one of
the Dolby Pro Logic decoding modes.

(page 8), the Front Stage Surround modes
will give the best results (page 29).
