You can enjoy virtual 3D sound even without rear speakers when you use the “VES (Virtual Enhanced Surround)” mode in the on-screen menu of the DVP- F11.
Some Sony DVD players other than the DVP-F11 also have the VES mode option. If you cannot hear the sound from the subwoofer even if you select VES mode, connect your DVD player to the AUX IN jacks of the subwoofer.
Refer to the instructions supplied with your DVD player for details.

Notes

•You cannot select “VES” when “DOLBY DIGITAL” is set to “DOLBY DIGITAL” in “AUDIO SETUP.”

•In case that the player outputs the signal from OPTICAL and COAXIAL, the surround effect will be heard only when you set “MPEG” to “PCM” in “AUDIO SETUP.”

•Some discs do not have rear sound. In this case, you cannot get the 3D surround effect.

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

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

•Set the front speakers to form an equilateral triangle with the listening position, or the effects may be difficult to hear even if you select “VES A” or “VES B.”

•When you select “VES A” or “VES B,” set the surround settings of the connected units, such as the amplifier, to OFF.

Select “VES A” or “VES B” and press ENTER/ EXECUTE.
