If you have a source component with only one audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a “Y”adapter cable to split the mono output to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.• Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable. In this case, try other surround modes, withoutworrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to your tastes.This mode lets you enjoy stereo sound with 7 speakers. The front L (R) channel signals are played from the surroundand surround back L (R) channels and only the in-phase component of the L and R channels is played on the centerchannel.
