Note

•Virtual Surround doesn’t work with WMA or DTS, through either the analog or digital outputs.

•96kHz linear PCM audio is automatically downsampled to 48kHz if Virtual Surround is switched on.

•If the player is outputting Dolby Digital or MPEG bitstream audio (in other words, no conversion to PCM), Virtual Surround has no effect on the audio from the digital output. See Digital Audio Out settings on page 30 for how to set up the digital output formats.

•How good the surround effect is varies with the disc.

Dialog Enhancer

•Settings: High, Medium, Low, Off (default)

The Dialog Enhancer feature is designed to make the dialog stand out from other background sounds in the soundtrack.

Equalizer

•Settings: Rock, Pop, Live, Dance, Techno, Classic, Soft, Off (default)

The various preset EQ curves are designed to suit various styles of music.

Note

•96kHz linear PCM audio is automatically downsampled to 48kHz if the Equalizer is switched on.
