MODE ADJUST
Selecting the MAIN MENU MODE ADJUST option opens the MODE ADJUST
menu, which is used to select a listening mode for adjustment. When the
MODE ADJUST menu opens, the currently activated Main Zone listening
mode is highlighted.
Selecting a listening mode does not activate that listening mode for the
current Main Zone input source. Rather, selecting a listening mode opens
the corresponding listening mode menu, which is used to customize the
selected listening mode. These adjustments are applied when the listening
mode is selected with one of the methods described in the Listening Mode
Activation section that begins below.

LISTENING MODE ACTIVATION

Listening modes are available for 2-channel, Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES) and
MIC, and analog input sources. The MC-8 allows listening mode selection
for all Main Zone sources. In some cases, the MC-8 automatically activates a
listening mode in response to certain commands. For this reason, it is
important to understand the three methods through which listening mode
activation occurs.
Listening mode activation occurs through:
• the INPUT SETUP menu preferred listening mode selection parameters
(page 3-12).
• the front-panel or remote control Mode button (page 2-15).
• the remote control listening mode family selection buttons (page 2-17).
