Choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, and not on the name of the program.

Notes

If no operation is performed within 5 seconds of pressing DSP on the front panel, the function of VOLUME/SELECT switches back to volume.

There are 9 programs with sub-programs available with this unit. However, the selection depends on the input signal format and not all sub-programs can be used with all input signal formats.

The acoustics of your listening room affect the sound field program. Minimize the sound reflections in your room to maximize the effect created by the program.

When you select an input source, this unit automatically selects the last sound field program used with that source.

When you set this unit in standby mode, it stores the current source and sound field program in memory and automatically selects them when you turn on the power again.

If the unit receives a Dolby Digital or DTS signal when the input mode is set to AUTO, the CINEMA DSP sound field programs automatically switches to the appropriate decoding program.

When the unit is reproducing a monaural source with PRO LOGIC, PRO LOGIC Enhanced, PRO LOGIC II Movie or PRO LOGIC IIx Movie, no sound is output from the front and surround speakers. Sound can only be heard from the center speaker. (If “Center” on the SOUND menu is set to None, the center channel sound is output from the front speakers.)

Notes

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

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 downmixes the sound of the center and surround speaker channels to output them from the front speakers.

The volume may be greatly reduced when you turn off the sound effects or if you set Dynamic Range to “MIN” (see page 42). In this case, turn on the sound effect.
