Enhancing the playback sound (K2)

The K2 function is designed to provide natural sound by improving the playback sound from low- bit-rate digital sources.

The function compensates for sound waves dissipated during digital recording compression to approximate the original analog sound. Sound is reproduced with more bits (24 bit) and a wider range of frequency (128 kHz, 176.4 kHz or

192 kHz).

Press [K2] on the remote control or on the main unit.

•When the K2 function is activated, the [K2] lamp (button) on the main unit lights up.

•Each time you press [K2], the display changes as follows.

-“K2 Mode 1”:

Plays back a digital source with non-com- pressed sound signals (linear PCM).

-“K2 Mode 2”:

Plays back a digital source with compressed sound signals (Dolby digital, DTS, MP3 or WMA).

-“K2 OFF”:

Cancels the K2 function.

NOTE

•The initial setting is “K2 OFF”.

•If [K2] is pressed when the clear voice function, headphone surround mode function, or 3D PHONIC is activated, these functions are turned off and the K2 function is activated.

•If [K2] is pressed when an AM/FM broadcast or an analog audio device connected to the [LINE1 IN] or [LINE 2 IN] terminal is selected as the source, “ANALOG SOURCE” is displayed in the display window, and the K2 function is not acti- vated. The K2 function is activated when a loaded disc, a connected USB mass storage class device, or a digital audio device connected to the [LINE 3 DIGITAL IN] terminal is selected as the source.

•The original range of frequency is automatically detected and extended to a specific range. When the original range is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz, the range is extended to 128 kHz, 176.4 kHz or 192 kHz respectively.

•This function is available when “PCM ONLY” is selected for “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” (refer to page 43). “NO OPERATION” appears in the dis- play window and the K2 function cannot be used when “DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM” or “STREAM/ PCM” is selected.
