Select a mode to enjoy multichannel surround sound such
as Dolby Digital and MPEG.
Even if you connect only a stereo TV, front speakers or use
a 2+1 channel connection, Virtual Enhanced Surround
(VES) lets you enjoy 3D sound by using 3D sound
imaging to create virtual rear speakers from the sound of
the front speakers (L: left, R: right) without using actual
rear speakers.
The surround sound signals are output from the AUDIO
OUT connectors.
When you select a surround mode, the player does not
output the following signals from the DIGITAL OUT
