JVC RX-DP9VBK manual Using the DSP Modes, Reproducing the Sound Field, Introducing the DSP Modes

Using the DSP Modes

This unit provides a variety of DSP (Digital Signal Processor) Modes.

Reproducing the Sound Field

The sound heard in a concert hall, club, etc. 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 Surround and DSP modes can create these important elements, and give you a real “being there” feeling.

Introducing the DSP Modes

The DSP modes include the following modes—

•DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) modes (LARGE HALL 1, LARGE HALL 2, RECITAL HALL, OPERA HOUSE, CHURCH, LIVE CLUB, DANCE CLUB, PAVILION, LARGE THEATER, SMALL THEATER)

•ALL CH STEREO

•STEREO FILM/MONO FILM

•3D THEATER

The following settings you have done are memorized and valid for the DSP modes:

•LEVEL submenu (see page 37) —Valid only for activated speakers.

•PARAMETRIC EQ submenu (see page 37) —Valid only for activated speakers.

•DSP PARAMETER submenu (see page 38) —Valid except for All Channel Stereo.

•CENTER CHANNEL submenu (See page 38)

—Valid only for the center speaker channel when the center speaker is activated. (Not valid for All Channel Stereo.)

To use the DSP modes, press DSP MODE so that the DSP modes change as follows.

=LARGE HALL 1 = LARGE HALL 2 = RECITAL HALL

=OPERA HOUSE = CHURCH = LIVE CLUB

=DANCE CLUB = PAVILION = ALL CH STEREO

=LARGE THEATER = SMALL THEATER

=STEREO FILM = MONO FILM = 3D THEATER

=SURROUND OFF (DSP off) = (Back to the beginning)

DAP modes

You can use the following DAP modes in order to reproduce a more acoustic sound field in your listening room.

LARGE HALL 1 : Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large shoebox-shaped hall designated primarily for classical concerts. (Its seating capacity is about 2000.)

LARGE HALL 2 : Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large vineyards-shaped hall designated primarily for classical concerts. (Its seating capacity is about 2000.)

RECITAL HALL : Reproduces the spatial feeling of a small hall designated primarily for classical recitals. (Seating capacity is about 500.)

OPERA HOUSE : Reproduces the spatial feeling of an opera house with a high ceiling and multi-level seating layout.

CHURCH	: Reproduces the spatial feeling of a majestic
	church with a high ceiling.
LIVE CLUB	: Reproduces the spatial feeling of a live music
	club with a low ceiling.
DANCE CLUB	: Reproduces the spatial feeling of a rocking
	dance club.
PAVILION	: Reproduces the spatial feeling of an exhibition
	hall with a high ceiling.

LARGE THEATER: Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large theater where the seating capacity is about 600. The built-in Dolby Pro Logic decoder is activated. (The PRO LOGIC indicator lights up.)

SMALL THEATER: Reproduces the spatial feeling of a small theater where the seating capacity is about 300. The built-in Dolby Pro Logic decoder is activate. (The PRO LOGIC indicator lights up.)

When using the DAP mode, the sounds come out of all the connected and activated speakers.

•If only front speakers are connected, JVC’s original 3D- PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the surround effect only through the front speakers) is used.

The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.
