PLAYBACK

■Virtual CINEMA DSP

With Virtual CINEMA DSP, you can enjoy all DSP programs without rear speakers. It creates virtual speakers to reproduce a natural sound field.

You can listen to virtual CINEMA DSP by setting “1C REAR LR” in the set menu to NON. Sound field processing changes to VIRTUAL CINEMA DSP automatically.

Note

•This unit is not set in the virtual CINEMA DSP mode even if “1C REAR LR” is set to NON in the following cases:

–when the 5ch Stereo, DOLBY DIGITAL, Pro Logic, Pro Logic II, or DTS program is selected;

–when the sound effect is turned off;

–when 6CH INPUT is selected as the input source;

–when a digital signal with a sampling frequency greater than 48 kHz is input to this unit;

–when using the test tone; or

–when connecting the headphones.

■SILENT CINEMA DSP

You can enjoy a powerful sound field similar to what you could expect from actual speakers through headphones, with SILENT CINEMA DSP. You can listen to SILENT CINEMA DSP by connecting your headphones to the PHONES jack while the digital sound field processor is on. The “SILENT” indicator lights up on the front panel display. (When sound effects are off, the unit reproduces the source in normal stereo.)

To listen to sounds with headphones only, press SPEAKERS ON/OFF to turn off the output of all the speakers.

Notes

•This feature is not available when 6CH INPUT is selected or the unit is receiving a digital signal with a sampling frequency greater than 48 kHz.

•The sound from the LFE channel will be mixed and output from the headphones.

■Normal stereo reproduction

Press STEREO to turn off the sound effect for normal stereo reproduction.

Notes

•If you turn off the sound effects, no sound is output from the center speaker or rear speakers.

•If you turn off the sound effects while the unit is reproducing sound from a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the dynamic range of the signal is automatically compressed and the unit will mix the sounds of the center and rear speaker channels and output them from the main speakers.

•The volume may be greatly reduced when you turn off the sound effects or if you set “SOUND 4 D. RANGE (dynamic range)” on the set menu to MIN. In this case turn on the sound effect.
