Selectable Listening Modes
You can select a variety of listening modes to suit the audio format of the signal being input.
The Stereo mode can be selected with any audio format.
When analog signals or DSD 2 ch signals are being input in the Pure Direct mode, the modes switches to the Analog Direct mode or DSD Direct mode which passes signals directly to the amplifier without passing through the DSP (Digital Signal Processor). However, when you are using Speaker B, the listening mode suited to the input signal is selected automatically.
Listening modes available when headphones are connected are Pure Direct and Stereo only. Only Stereo can be selected when the input signal is DSD.
