MULTI CHANNEL AV RECEIVER
STR-ZA3100ES/STR-ZA2100ES/STR-ZA1100ES
When using an ARC-compatible TV that supports Dolby Atmos audio output
The receiver can receive Dolby Atmos signals in the Dolby Digital Plus format, not only when audio signals are input
from the HDMI input jack but also from a TV connected to the receiver by using the ARC function.
Turn on the ARC function to enable the transmission of Dolby Digital Plus signals. This receiver is designed to activate
the ARC function separately even if [Control for HDMI] is set to [Off] in the [HDMI Setup] menu. In this case, set the
receiver by the following procedure.
