You can have the receiver automatically use 6.1 or 7.1 

decoding for 6.1 encoded sources (for example, Dolby Digital 

EX or DTS-ES), or you can choose to always use 6.1 or 7.1 

decoding (for example, with 5.1 encoded material). With 5.1 

encoded sources, a surround back channel will be 

generated, but the material may sound better in the 5.1 

format for which it was originally encoded (in which case, you 

can simply switch surround back channel processing off).

• With a 7.1-channel surround system, audio signals that 

have undergone matrix decoding processing through 

surround back channel processing to which the Up Mix 

function is added are output from the surround back 

speakers.

 Press 

Each press cycles through the options as follows:

• SB ON – Matrix decoding processing for generating the 

surround back component from the surround component 

is turned on.

• SB AUTO – Matrix decoding processing for generating 

the surround back component from the surround 

component is switched automatically. Matrix decoding 

processing is only performed when surround back 

channel signals are detected in the input signals.

• SB OFF – Matrix decoding processing for generating the 

surround back component from the surround component 

is turned off.

In a 7.1-channel surround system with surround speakers 

placed directly at the sides of the listening position, the 

surround sound of 5.1-channel sources is heard from the 

side. The Up Mix function mixes the sound of the surround 

speakers with the surround back speakers so that the 

surround sound is heard from diagonally to the rear as it 

should be.

• Using the Up Mix function is effective when the speakers 

in the 7.1-channel surround system are set up as 

recommended in the example on page 10.

• Depending on the positions of the speakers and the 

sound source, in some cases it may not be possible to 

achieve good results. In this case, set the setting to OFF.

 appears and the Up Mix function turns off. If 

you want to turn this function on, perform steps 1 and 2 

again.

• When set to ON, the   (Up Mix) indicator on the front 

panel lights.

• Set  to  ON regardless of this setting when playing DTS-HD 

signals.

• May automatically be set to OFF even when set to ON, 

depending on the input signal and listening mode.

There are a number of additional sound settings you can 

make using the AUDIO PARAMETER menu. The defaults, if 

not stated, are listed in bold.

• Note that if a setting doesn’t appear in the AUDIO 

 menu, it is unavailable due to the current 

source, settings and status of the receiver.

 (Sound Delay)

Some monitors have a slight delay when 

showing video, so the soundtrack will be 

slightly out of sync with the picture. By adding 

a bit of delay, you can adjust the sound to 

match the presentation of the video.

/LOUDNESS

The MIDNIGHT allows you to hear effective 

surround sound of movies at low volumes.
The LOUDNESS is used to get good bass and 

treble from music sources at low volumes.
