ADVANCED CONCERT modes

The ADVANCED CONCERT (Digital Signal Processing) modes allow you to transform your living room into a variety of different sonic environments when playing either two-channel or multichannel sources. It optimizes its effects in accordance with your source, LISTENING CH SELECT and speaker configuration.

CHAMBER

Simulates the acoustic environment of a very resonant concert hall. Rich reverberation and a full sound create the impression of a lively performance space.

Simulates the acoustic effects of a jazz club. Reflected sound is virtually below 100 msec so that the listener can experience a live band effect.

Reflected sound delay time is virtually below 50 msec, for the listener to experience the visceral power of dance music.
