Notes:

•The effect of the Late Night function depends on the material that you are playing and the intention of the original sound designer, and with some material there will be little or no effect when you select the different options.

•On the TX-SA706, this procedure can also be per- formed on the AV amplifier by using its [LATE NIGHT] button.
