to the front left/right speakers and the subwoofer.

Genre Sync Mode
Only when you have this unit connected to a Pioneer HDD/DVD
recorder and are using the HDMI Control function, you can make
use of the Genre Sync Mode to have the listening mode
automatically change to that which best matches the genre of the
contents playing from the recorder.
•Set the HDMI Mode to AMP Mode (page 43).
Press GENRE when listening to media contents from a
recorder.
The most appropriate listening mode is selected and shown in the
display. When the related genre could not be determined, No Genre
or Can’t use may be displayed and the listening mode remains
unchanged.
Note
This function is available only for a Pioneer HDMI Control-
compatible HDD/DVD recorder.
Mainly used with Jukebox and MP3 sources.
To use this function, you must have an HDMI Control-
compatible Pioneer HDD/DVD recorder connected via HDMI,
and have the HDMI Control function set to On.
Using the Sound Retriever
When audio data is removed during the MP3 or WMA compression
process, sound quality often suffers from an uneven sound image.
The Sound Retriever feature employs new DSP technology that
helps bring CD quality sound back to compressed two channel
audio by restoring sound pressure and smoothing jagged artifacts
left over after compression.
Press SOUND RTRV while listening to a stereo source.
Press repeatedly to switch between:
Retriever On — Switches the Sound Retriever on.
Retriever Off — Switches the Sound Retriever off.
Note
This setting cannot be used with multichannel sources. Also, in
case of SACD, DTS-HD, DTS-Express, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby
Digital Plus, and PCM (192 kHz/176.4 kHz), even stereo sources
cannot be used.
This feature is effective when used together with the Jukebox
function of an HDD/DVD recorder.
