virtual speakers to reproduce the natural sound field.
If you set “SUR. LR”
to NONE (see page 58), Virtual
CINEMA DSP activates automatically whenever you
select a CINEMA DSP sound field program.
Virtual CINEMA DSP will not activate, even when “SUR. LR” is
set to NONE (see page 58) in the following cases:
– When MULTI CH INPUT is selected as the input source.
– When headphones are connected to the PHONES jack.
