■Virtual CINEMA DSP
With Virtual CINEMA DSP, you can enjoy all sound field
programs without surround speakers. It creates virtual
speakers to reproduce a natural sound field.
You can listen to virtual CINEMA DSP by setting “1C
SURROUND LR” in the set menu to NON. Sound field
processing changes to Virtual CINEMA DSP
automatically.
Note
• Virtual CINEMA DSP will not activate, even when 1C
SURROUND LR is set to “NON” (see page 39) in the
following cases:
– When the 5ch Stereo, DOLBY DIGITAL, Pro Logic, Pro
Logic II, or DTS program is selected.
– When the sound effect is turned off.
– When 6CH INPUT is selected as the input source.
– When a digital signal with a sampling frequency greater
than 48 kHz is input to this unit.
– When using the test tone.
– When connecting the headphones.

to CINEMA DSP or HiFi DSP sound field programs. The
“SILENT CINEMA” indicator lights up on the front
panel display. (If the sound field programs are off, you
listen with normal stereo reproduction.)
