Default setting is “OFF.”

pMODE

OFF : outputs all channel signals recorded on the DVD. When you connect fewer than 5 (+1) speakers, the player distributes the output signal for the missing speaker to other speakers appropriately.

When you play a CD or a VIDEO CD, outputs the stereo signal to the front speakers.

PRO LOGIC : outputs the Pro Logic processed signals when the input signals are stereo.

VES A* : uses 3D sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers from the sound of the front speakers (L, R) without using actual rear speakers. The virtual speakers are reproduced as shown in Ill. 1.

VES B* : uses 3D sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers from the sound of the front speakers (L, R) without using actual rear speakers. The virtual speakers are reproduced as shown in Ill. 2.

*These settings also affect the output from the LINE OUT (AUDIO 1, 2) connectors.

Notes

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

When you select “PRO LOGIC”, the sound may only come from the center speaker depending on the disc.

When the playing signal does not contain the surround component, the effects may be difficult to hear even if you select “PRO LOGIC”, “VES A” or ”VES B.”

If the sound distortion occurs when you select “PRO LOGIC”, “VES A” or ”VES B,” set this item to “OFF”.

If you connect the front speakers only, there is no surround effects even if you select “PRO LOGIC.”

When you select “VES A” or ”VES B,” you cannot adjust the level or the balance of the speakers except for the front speakers.

If both the front speakers are not placed an equal distance from your listening position, the effects may be difficult to hear even though you select “VES A” or “VES B.”

The setting “PRO LOGIC” affects only when:

you play a CD/VIDEO CD

you play the PCM sound track on a DVD

you play the “DOLBY DIGITAL 2/0“ sound track on a DVD.
