NOTES

The 3D phonic function works correctly when playing back discs recorded in the Dolby Surround or Dolby Digital 5.1-CH format.

It also works when playing back discs other than those above, but does not provide the correct effect.

The 3D Phonic function does not affect the DTS or Dolby Digital bitstream signal from the DIGITAL OUT jack.

The sound effect will not be set or operate, even if 3D PHONIC is pressed, for the sound of DVD discs recorded in Linear PCM.

When you set the 3D PHONIC function to on, the DOWN MIX and COMPRESSION settings in the AUDIO page of the preference display are disabled.

Each time you press 3D PHONIC, the effect mode changes as follows:
