listening mode automatically based on the type of input signal and
the speaker settings.
Each press of the LISTEN MODE key switches the setting as

The listening mode settings are different depending on the type

Dolby Digital Surround EX compliant disc :
Dolby Digital Surround EX compliant disc contains the identification
signals. When you choose FULL AUTO during “Input mode set-
tings” (9), this amplifire detects the identification signals and
change the LISTEN mode to the DOLBY D EX(Dolby Digital Surround
EX mode) automatically.
But sometimes we find some discs which is Dolby Digital Surround
EX compliant disc but it does not contain the identification signals.
If you find the notice like “Surround EX” on the label of disc or
package, you can choose DOLBY D EX then you can enjoy Dolby
Digital Surround EX sound.
