  • Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.) mode: This mode allows you to listen to higher-fidelity sound and select the decoding mode for listening to a 2-channel stereo or monaural sound as multi-channel sound.
  • 2-channel sound mode: You can switch the output sound to 2-channel sound regardless of the recording formats of the software you are using, the playback device connected, or the sound field settings of the receiver.
A.F.D./2CH: Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.):Presets the sound as it was recorded/encoded without adding any surround effects.

However, for USA and Canada models, this receiver will generate a low-frequency signal for output to the subwoofer when there is no LFE signals.
