MODE ADJUST
Selecting the 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), MIC and
analog input sources. The RV-8 allows listening mode selection for all Main
Zone sources. In some cases, the RV-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.
Note:
When headphones are plugged into the RV-8, all listening modes are downmixed
to two channels with the following exceptions: HEADPHONE L7, HEADPHONE 5.1,
HEADPHONE DTS and HEADPHONE 5.1a. These listening modes are described in
detail on page 6-34.
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 2-17).
• the remote control listening mode family selection buttons (page 2-17).
