Notes

•The sound fields for music and movies do not work in the following cases.

–The multi-channel input is selected.

–DTS-HD signals with a sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz are being received.

–Dolby TrueHD signals with a sampling frequency of more than 96 kHz are being received.

•If you set up the sound field during DTS 96/24 signal reception, the signal will be played back only at 48 kHz.

•If you set up the sound field effect while the receiver is receiving signals with a sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz, the signals will always be played back at either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

•The effects provided by the virtual speakers may cause increased noise in the playback signal.

•When listening with sound fields that employ the virtual speakers, you will not be able to hear any sound coming directly from the surround speakers.

•When one of the sound fields for music is selected, no sound is output from the sub woofer if all the speakers are set to “LARGE” in the Speaker settings menu. However, the sound will be output from the sub woofer if the digital input signal contains L.F.E. signals, or if the front or surround speakers are set to “SMALL,” the sound field for movie is selected, or “Portable Audio” is selected.

Tips

•Sound fields with DCSmarks use DCS technology. See “Glossary” (page 127).

•When the sound field’s DCSmark is selected, the Digital Cinema Sound lamp lights up on the display.
