Dolby 3 Stereo
The 3 Stereo mode will redirect the Surround signals to the
front left and right speakers when only the front and
center speakers are used.
.
Stereo
The Stereo mode uses the two main channel outputs
from the front speakers. Use this mode if you have
connected the front speakers only.
DSP (Digital Sound Processor)
These digital sound effects resemble sounds in a real
environment such as (ARENA/ JAZZ CLUB / THEATER /
STADIUM / DISCO). DSP automatically converts analog
audio signals to digital ones which enables you to adjust
the sound without degrading the sound quality.
Different modes will give you different feels of size and
types of listening environment.
Night Mode
By using Dynamic Range Control technology, you can
enjoy enhanced Dolby Digital sound quality at night
without interrupting your roommates or neighbors.
Night Mode will compress the difference between
normal voices and sounds such as explosions, while still
enjoying a Dolby Digital enable component (DVD, SAT).
Night Mode can be activated by pressing the NIGHT
button on the remote control. DRC OFF (Default)
appears on the display. While DRC OFF (Default) is still
on the display, continue to press the NIGHT button to
toggle and select the desired night mode. There are
three modes (DRC OFF, SOFT, ON) for you to choose the
extents of compression.
Dynamic Bass Amplified System (dBas)
With “Dynamic Bass Amplified System” (dBas), the
discrete amplifier is located in the receiver so the
subwoofer keeps the power needed to reproduce
powerful effects.
4 settings are available: SOFT, BALANCED, STRONG and
POWERFUL.
Press the SUBWOOFER button to toggle the subwoofer
(dBas) effects level according to your needs.
6 Channel external input
An external decoder (Dts, Dolby
Digital, etc…) or a device with built-in
multi-channel decoder and 6 channel
output connector (DVD player, TV…)
can be connected to the 6CH input. It
is therefore possible to play any future
6 Channels coding (SACD, DVD Audio)
thanks to this connection. The external
decoder device will send the separated audio
information to the receiver that will then amplify the
signal and send to appropriate speakers.
To activate 6 Channel external input, press SOURCE
on the receiver until 6 CH is selected or press dvd/6
channel twice on the remote control.
Fine Setting of the Components
The receiver can be directly turned on by pressing the
DVD•6CH / SAT•CABLE / TV / TAPE•CD / VCR / TUNER
buttons on the remote control, which also selects the
best surround sound mode. The default surround modes
for different components are listed in the table below.
If you decide to change the surround mode, you can
press the SURROUND button repeatedly to toggle
among the different surround mode choices and select
the one you want.
