Using the DSP Modes

The built-in Surround Processor provides three types of the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) mode — 3D-PHONIC mode, DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) mode and Surround mode.

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).

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

3D THEATER: Reproduces the sound field of a large theater. This mode can be selected when only front speakers are connected to this receiver and “REAR SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to “NONE” (see page 14).

DAP modes

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. The DAP mode can create these important elements, and gives you a real “being there” feeling. This mode can be used when the front

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

You can select one of the following to your preference while playing an analog or linear PCM source.

LIVE CLUB: Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low ceiling.

DANCE CLUB: Gives a throbbing bass beat.

HALL: Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a concert hall.

PAVILION: Gives the spacious feeling of a pavilion with a high ceiling.
