A subtracting circuit is provided which obtains the difference between left and right channel signals from the sound source. A first changeover circuit selectively outputs the left and right channel signals to first and second terminals in a combination in accordance with a mode. A second changeover circuit is connected to the output of the subtracting circuit and to at least one of the left and right channel signals and selectively outputs a subtraction signal and a signal on the line to which the second changeover circuit is connected, to a third terminal. A third changeover circuit selectively outputs signals at the first, second and third terminals to fourth and fifth terminals according to the modes.
