PLAYBACK
■ Listening to high fidelity stereo sound
with Direct Stereo
Direct Stereo bypasses this unit’s decoders and DSP
processors, allowing you to enjoy high fidelity sound from
2-channel PCM and analog sources.
y
This operation is recommended for use when high fidelity stereo
sound is desired with playback of a video source. Otherwise,
PURE DIRECT is recommended for the highest possible sound
fidelity (see page 37).
Rotate PROGRAM (or press STEREO repeatedly)
to select DIRECT STEREO.
The front panel display automatically dims.
• To avoid unexpected noise, do not play DTS-encoded CDs in
this mode.
• When multi-channel signals (Dolby Digital and DTS) are input,
this unit automatically selects an analog signal input. (When
DTS is selected as an input mode, no sound will be heard.)
• No sound will be output from the subwoofer.
• TONE CONTROL (page 35) and SET MENU (page 53)
settings are not effective.
■ Night listening modes
The night listening modes are designed to improve
listenability at lower volumes or at night. Choose either
NIGHT:CINEMA or NIGHT:MUSIC depending on the
type of material you are playing.
Press NIGHT on the remote control repeatedly to
select cinema or music.
When night listening is selected, the NIGHT indicator in
the front panel display lights up.
• Select NIGHT:CINEMA when watching films to
reduce the dynamic range of film soundtracks and
make dialog easier to hear at lower volumes.
• Select NIGHT:MUSIC when listening to music sources
to preserve ease-of-listening for all sounds.
• Select OFF if you do not want to use this function.
Press l / h to adjust the effect level while
NIGHT:CINEMA or NIGHT:MUSIC is displayed.
This adjusts the level of compression.
• Select “MIN” for minimum compression.
• Select “MID” for standard compression.
• Select “MAX” for maximum compression.
y
NIGHT:CINEMA and NIGHT:MUSIC adjustments are stored
independently.
• You cannot use the night listening modes with PURE DIRECT,
MULTI CH INPUT, or when headphones are connected (even
though the NIGHT indicator lights up when PURE DIRECT is
selected).
• The night listening modes may vary in effectiveness depending
on the input source and surround sound settings you use.
