JVC exclusive DSP

Listening to the 7.1-channel surround as processed by the JVC DAP (Digital Acoustics Processor) evokes a totally different surround sound experience from what you get from stereo or 5.1-channel sound. Listen carefully to the 5.1-channel sound of a DVD in its recorded form and you’ll notice it does not produce the sensation of being surrounded by sound.

JVC developed the DAP for one objective: to make the home theater audience feel as if they were in the best movie theater surrounded by an array of speakers to the left and right, and behind. Then they would feel enveloped in sound, with a helicopter, for instance, moving left to right, or front to back.

JVC exclusive DSP, as implemented by the TI Aureus™ chip -- embodies the algorithms of sound field recreation that are developed specifically for advanced home theater receivers. The sound field patterns are created on the basis of the computer sound field simulation technology developed by a leading concert hall construction company. Patterns of reflections are calculated based on the data of the sound fields of the concert halls, theaters and movie theaters.

*To verify simulated halls, the contractor creates a precision scaled-down miniature hall using the same materials for walls, seats, etc., in the same shape. A second larger scaled-down model will then be made to further refine the data.
