ENTERTAINMENTDISCO

This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a

 

 

 

big city. The sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a

 

 

 

high-energy, “immediate” sound.

 

 

 

 

 

 

5CH STEREO

Using this program increases the listening position range. This is a sound field

 

 

 

suitable for background music at parties.

 

 

 

 

Note

Reverberations (sound effects) for realizing the sound field and unprocessed stereo from the left and right main speakers is output. The sound is not output from the center speaker. (The sound is output when one of these programs is selected while playing a source encoded with a Dolby Digital or DTS signal. If 5CH STEREO is selected, the sound is output from all speakers regardless of the input source.)

TV SPORTS

Although the presence sound field is relatively narrow, the surround sound field

 

 

 

employs the sound environment of a large concert hall. With this program, you

 

 

 

can enjoy watching various TV programs such as news, variety shows, music

 

 

 

programs or sports programs. In a stereo broadcast of a sports game, the

 

 

 

commentator is oriented at the center position, and the shouts and the

 

 

 

atmosphere in the stadium spread on the surround side, while their spread to the

 

 

 

rear is properly restrained.

MONO MOVIE

This program is provided for reproducing monaural video sources (such as old

 

 

 

movies). The program produces the optimum reverberation to create sound depth

 

 

 

by using only the presence sound field.
