You can only select this sound field
if
the
headphones are connected to the receiver.
HP 2CH (Headphones 2CH)
This mode is selected automatically ifyou use
headphones (except Analog Direct). Standard
2 channel stereo sources completely bypass
the sound field processing and multi channel
surround formats are downmixed to 2
channels except LFE signals.
Note
When headphones are connected
to
the S-AIR
surround amplifier, the sound field
is
automatically
set
to
"HP
2CH".
HP DIR (Headphones Direct)
Outputs the analog signals without processing
by the equalizer, sound field, etc.
If you connect a subwoofer
This receiver will generate a low frequency
signal for output to the subwoofer when there
is
no LFE signal, which is a low-pass sound
effect output from a subwoofer to a 2 channel
signal. However, the low frequency signal is
not generated for
"NE06
CIN" or
"NE06
MUS" when all speakers are set to "LARGE".
In
order to take full advantage
of
the Dolby
Digital bass redirection circuitry, we
recommend setting the subwoofer's cut off
frequency as high as possible.
Notes on sound fields
Depends on the speaker pattern settings,
some sound fields may not be available.
The sound fields for music and movie do not
work in the following cases.
- signals with a sampling frequency
of
more
than 48 kHz are being received.
- signals with more than
5.1
channel are
being received (except PLIIz).
52
GB
You
cannot select PLII, PLIIx and PLIIz at
the same time.
- PLIIx
is
available only when the speaker
pattern is set
to
a setting with surround
back speaker(s).
- PLIIz
is
available only when the speaker
pattern
is
set to a setting with front high
speakers.
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
subwoofer
if
all the speakers are set to
"LARGE" in the SPEAKER menu.
However, the sound will be output from the
subwoofer
if
the digital input signal contains
LFE signals, or if the front or surround
speakers are set to "SMALL", the sound
field for movie is selected, or "PORTABLE"
is
selected.
Tips
You
can identify the encoding format
of
DVD
software, etc., by looking at the logo on the
package.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx and Dolby Pro Logic lIz
decoding are effective when multi channel signals
are input.
Sound fields with
1!1!13
marks use DCS
technology. For details on Digital Cinema Sound
(DCS), see "Glossary" (page 85).
To turn off the surround effect
for movie/music
Press SOUND FIELD
+/-
repeatedly to select
"2CH
ST." or "A.F.D. AUTO".
You can also press 2CH/A.DIRECT
repeatedly on the receiver to select "2CH ST."
or press A.F.D. repeatedly on the receiver to
select "A.F.D. AUTO".
