These sound fields cannot be selected when:

– the system is in standby for recording or during 

recording.

– a microphone is connected.

– the Karaoke Mode is turned on.

• SBS MULTI (Sound Broadcasting System 

Multi mode): 
Performs suitable decoding based on the 
source to maximize the sound field effect. 
This mode lets you enjoy audio playback of 
all types of discs from multiple speakers.

• A.F.D. AUTO (Auto Format Direct Auto): 

The number of sound channels depends on the 
source. During DVD function, when 2 
channel sources such as AUDIO CD, VIDEO 
CD and MP3 audio tracks are played back, 
only 2 sound channels would be output. 
However, the number of sound channels 
output during DVD VIDEO and DivX video 
files playback would depend on the audio 
format selection. During other functions, the 
system would only output 2 sound channels. 
This setting is ideal when you want to listen to 
the original sound from the source.

• PRO LOGIC: 

Performs Pro Logic decoding. The source 
recorded in 2 channels is decoded into 4.1 
channels.

• PLII MOVIE: 

Performs Pro Logic II Movie mode decoding. 
This setting is ideal for movies encoded in 
Dolby Surround. In addition, this mode can 
reproduce sound in 5.1 channels when 
watching videos of overdubbed or old 
movies. The source recorded in 2 channels is 
decoded into 5.1 channels.

• PLII MUSIC: 

Performs Pro Logic II Music mode decoding. 
This setting is ideal for normal stereo sources 
such as AUDIO CDs. The source recorded in 
2 channels is decoded into 5.1 channels.

• V.M.DIM.: 

Performs DCS (Digital Cinema Sound) 
decoding. The source recorded in 2 channels 
is decoded into 5.1 channels.

• LINK: 

Reproduces the surround channels from the 
front channels.

• 2CH STEREO: 

Reproduces stereo output from multi channel 
sources such as DVD VIDEOs during DVD 
function. The system outputs the original 
sound during functions other than DVD and 
during playback of stereo sources such as 
AUDIO CD, VIDEO CD and MP3 audio 
tracks.

• HP  2CH: 

The normal sound field for headphones.

• HP  VIRTUAL: 

The sound field for headphones with virtual 
surround effect. This sound field is only 
effective when you play back multi channel 
sources.

• Depending on the disc, the surround effect may not 

be as much as expected.

• You can also press SOUND FIELD repeatedly to 

select the sound field you want.
