USING OTHER FEATURES

Compression artifacts (such as the MP3 format) are
created by a lossy compression scheme where the audio is
resampled to lower the bitrate 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 the improved performance of
the overall sound system.

• The Compressed Music Enhancer mode is compatible with the

PCM signals (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz) and the analog
2-channel input sources.

• The Compressed Music Enhancer mode is not effective with

any of the sound field programs.

• When the Compressed Music Enhancer mode is turned on while

an incompatible input source is being played back, “Not
Available” appears in the front panel display.

• When the input source is changed to an incompatible input

source while the Compressed Music Enhancer mode is turned
on, the Compressed Music Enhancer mode is automatically
turned off and the incompatible input source is played back in
2-channel or 6-channel stereo.
