PLAYBACK

➤ Selecting the sound mode

En

You can play back input sources without any sound field effect 
processing.

■

When the straight decode mode is enabled, the unit produces 
stereo sound from the front speakers for 2-channel sources such as 
CDs, and produces unprocessed multichannel sounds for 
multichannel sources.

Each time you press the key, the straight decode mode is 
enabled or disabled.

• To enable 6.1/7.1-channel playback from 5.1-channel sources when surround 

back speakers are used, set “Extended Surround” (p.89) in the “Option” menu to a 
setting other than “Off”. 

■

The surround decoder enables unprocessed multichannel 
playback from 2-channel sources. When a multichannel source is 
input, it works the same way as the straight decode mode.

For details on each decoder see “Glossary” (p.137).

Each time you press the key, the surround decoder 
changes.

• You cannot select the Dolby Pro Logic IIx decoders when headphones are 

connected or when “Surround Back” (p.104) in the “Setup” menu is set to 
“None”.
