of the surround speakers.
In a 7.1-channel surround system with surround speakers placed directly at the sides of the listening position,
the surround sound of 5.1-channel sources is heard from the side. This function mixes the sound of the surround
speakers with the surround back speakers so that the surround sound is heard from diagonally to the rear as it
should be.

achieve good results. In this case, set the setting to ON SIDE or IN REAR.
! ON SIDE – Select when the surround speakers is positioned right beside you.
! IN REAR – Select when the surround speaker is positioned obliquely behind you.
