VIRTUAL MULTI DIMENSION

Uses sound imaging to create an array of virtual rear speaker positions higher than the listener from a single pair of actual rear speakers.

This mode creates five sets of virtual speakers surrounding the listener at approximately a 30° angle of elevation. The effect differs according to “REAR” or “SIDE” setting of the rear speakers (page 94).

zYou can use the LCD and scroll key on the remote to select a surround setting. Toggle the scroll key up or down so that “SURROUND” appears in the LCD screen. Then press down on the scroll key repeatedly to select one of the surround sounds.

Notes

To enjoy the multichannel audio through the 5.1CH OUTPUT jacks, correctly set each speaker position and distance. For details on setting each speaker, see page 94.

When you select an item, the sound cuts off for a moment.

When the playing signal does not contain a signal for the rear speakers (page 61), the surround effects may be difficult to hear.

When you select “TVS DYNAMIC,” “TVS WIDE,” “TVS NIGHT”, or “TVS STANDARD,” the player does not output the sound from the centre speaker.

When you select one of the surround modes, turn off the surround setting of the connected TV or amplifier (receiver).

If the player is set up to output the signal from the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack, the TVS effect will not be heard when you play a CD.

Make sure that your listening position is between and at an equal distance from your speakers, and that the speakers are located in similar surroundings. Otherwise, the TVS effect may be hard to discern.

“TVS NIGHT” only works with Dolby Digital discs. However, not all discs will respond to the “TVS NIGHT” function in the same way.

If you use the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack and set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “DOLBY DIGITAL,” “DTS” to “DTS,” and “MPEG” to “MPEG” in “AUDIO SETUP,” sound will come from your speakers but it will not have the TVS effect.
