Selecting the Compressed Music Enhancer mode

Compression artifacts (such as the MP3 format) are created by a lossy compression scheme where the audio is resampled to lower the bit rate and to remove sounds that are indistinguishable to typical human hearing. The Compressed Music Enhancer feature of this unit enhances your listening experience by regenerating the missing harmonics in a compression artifact. As a result, flattened complexity due to the loss of high-frequency fidelity as well as lack of bass due to the loss of low-frequency bass is compensated, providing improved performance of the overall sound system.

Notes

•When you play back DSD sources or PCM sources whose sampling frequencies are higher than 48 kHz, this unit samples them down to 48 kHz or lower and applies the Compressed Music Enhancer mode.

•The Compressed Music Enhancer mode is not effective with any of the sound field programs.

Press ENHANCER on the front panel (or set the operation mode selector to AMP and then press ENHANCER on the remote control) repeatedly to select the desired Compressed Music Enhancer mode.

The following display is shown in the OSD and the ENHANCER indicator lights up in the front panel display.
