Installation
We can usually identify the source of a sound based on its loudness and the time difference (delay) between the sound reaching our left ear and right ear. The Virtual Surround system of this unit uses this characteristic of human hearing. This system, along with the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) technology, creates an effect that makes you think the sound is coming from all around you, even though the sound is output from only two front speakers. The Virtual Surround system limits the sweet spot (effec- tive listening position) due to its nature. That is, the Virtual Surround system of this unit sets an optimum listening position at any point on the center axis when you face the unit. Any position not on the axis will have less effect. Also, if the room has many objects that reflect sound or that cause uneven reflection, the optimum effect may not be obtained.
The effect of the subwoofer varies significantly depending on its location. Generally, placing the subwoofer in the corner of the room would be the most effective.
