Using Virtual Surround Back
(VSB)

Selecting this mode allows you to hear a
virtual surround back channel through your
surround speakers. For example, you can
choose to listen to sources with no surround
back channel information (for example, 5.1
encoded material) with emulated 6.1
encoding (

VSB ON). Sometimes the material

may sound better in the 5.1 format for which it
was originally encoded. In this case you can

simply switch it off (

VSB OFF).

Depending on the input signal and the
Listening Mode, the Virtual Surround Back
mode may not be effective.

Press VSB MODE (front panel) to select

a virtual surround back channel option.
Each press cycles through the options as
follows:

VSB ON – Virtual Surround Back is always
used (for example, on 5.1 encoded
material)

VSB OFF – Virtual Surround Back mode is
switched off
