Basic Playback

DSP modes

The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) modes allow you to transform your living room into a variety of different sonic environments when playing either two-channel or multi-channel sources.

HALL 1

Simulates the acoustic effects of a large concert hall. Suitable for classical music.

A long delay time of reflected sounds, coupled with reverb effects, let the listener enjoy the dynamic and rich sounds characteristic of concert halls and powerful orchestral performances.

HALL 2

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

JAZZ

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

DANCE

Simulates the acoustic effects of a dance club. Features a strong bass sound.

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

THEATER 1

Reproduces theater sound field effects without losing the localization of each channel. Theater effects can be enjoyed without losing Dolby Digital/ Pro Logic effects when used in combination those formats (with movies bearing the 3trademark).

THEATER 2

Simulates the acoustic environment of a theater while maintaining proper localization of each channel.

Stereo mode

Use the STEREO mode to enjoy standard (two-channel) stereo sound from the front left and right speakers.

This mode also allows you to :

•Use the BASS and TREBLE tone controls

•Use DIRECT for truer reproduction of the original recording.

•Use DIGITAL NR.

See display explanations on p.18-19 and front panel explanations on p.20-23 for details on SPEAKERS (A/B), BASS (–/+) and TREBLE (–/+). See P.45 for DIGITAL NR explanation.

When listening to Dolby Digital or DTS sources, DIGITAL NR do not function even if you select

STEREO.
