Other 3D Phonic Virtual Surround Sound System Information

•With a Video CD disc, if the AUDIO set- ting is set to L or R, you cannot activate the 3D Phonic function (i.e. the 3D Phonic mode is fixed to OFF). Conversely, when the 3D Phonic function is active, changing the AUDIO setting to L or R from STEREO can- cels the 3D Phonic function.

•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 VIDEO 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 prefer- ence display are disabled.
