JVC RX-9000VBK Reproducing the Sound Field, DAP modes, 3D-PHONIC modes, DVD Multi Playback Mode

DAP modes

In order to reproduce a more acoustic sound field in your listening room while playing music sources or soundtracks of software encoded with Dolby Digital (bearing the mark D I G I T A L ), with

Dolby Surround (bearing the mark	DOLBY SURROUND	), or with DTS
Digital Surround (bearing the mark	), you can use DAP modes.

This mode can be used when the front speakers are connected to this receiver (without respect to the rear/center speaker connection).

LIVE CLUB: Gives the close feeling of a live music club

with a low ceiling.

DANCE CLUB: Gives a powerful feeling of a dance club.

CONCERT HALL: Gives the expansive feeling of a concert hall.

CONCERT ARENA: Gives the spacious feeling of a large arena

with a high ceiling.

3D-PHONIC modes

The 3D-PHONIC mode gives you such a nearly surround effect as is reproduced through the Dolby Surround decoder, which is widely used to reproduce sounds with a feeling of movement like those experienced in movie theaters. The 3D-PHONIC mode is the result of research on sound localization technology carried out at JVC for many years. This mode can be used when the front speakers are

connected to this receiver (without respect to the rear/center speaker connection).

No adjustments are required for the 3D-PHONIC modes. By simply selecting one of the 3D-PHONIC modes, you can enjoy the 3D- PHONIC effect.

•You can select “3D ACTION” only when playing an analog or linear PCM (digital) source.

•You can select “3D DIGITAL” only when playing a source encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround.

•You can select “3D L. THEATER” and “3D S. THEATER” when only front speakers are connected to this receiver and “REAR SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to “NONE” (see page 24).

3D ACTION: Best for action and war movies — where the action is fast and explosive.

3D DIGITAL: Reproduces multichannel source encoded with Dolby Digital or with DTS Digital Surround.

3D L. (large) THEATER: Reproduces the sound field of a large theater (where the seating capacity is about 1,000).

3D S. (small) THEATER: Reproduces the sound field of a small theater (where the seating capacity is about 500).

Reproducing the Sound Field

The sound heard in a concert hall or club consists of direct sound and indirect sound — early reflections and reflections from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the distances of the ceiling and walls. These direct sounds and indirect sounds are the most important elements of the acoustic surround effects.

JVC Theater Surround, DAP modes and 3D-PHONIC modes can create these important elements, and give you a real “being there” feeling.
