DSP SURROUND
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) SURROUND adjusts the
delay time, the input mode and the feedback level to give a
resonant surround sound, allowing you to enjoy the real sound
presence of different environments.
This unit has been programmed with 5 different DSP SURROUND
modes.
SELECTING A PROGRAMMED DSP
SURROUND MODE
Five modes of DSP SURROUND offer the sound presence you’d
experience in disco (DISCO), at a live concert (LIVE), stadium
(STADIUM), in a concert hall (HALL) or movie theater (MOVIE).
(Shown in parentheses are indications appearing in the display.)
Press DSP SURROUND, and turn MULTI JOG or
press
f f f f f or g g g g g repeatedly to select the desired
Programmed mode within 4 seconds.
“DSP SURROUND” appears and the DSP SURROUND mode is
displayed cyclically as follows.
DISCO LIVE MOVIE HALL STADIUM
Equalization curves are selected automatically to match the DSP
SURROUND modes and can also be selected or turned off to
suit your preference.
To display the current DSP SURROUND mode
Press DSP SURROUND. The current mode is displayed for 4
seconds.
To cancel the selected mode
Press DSP SURROUND twice. “DSP OFF” appears and “DSP
SURROUND” disappears.
When the music source is monaural
Select “LIVE”, “STADIUM” or “MOVIE” to obtain a simulated
stereo effect.
When “DISCO” or “HALL” is selected, no sound will be heard
from the surround speakers.
SOUND
To adjust the volume of the surround speakers
Press MANUAL SELECT twice or three times on the remote
control while DSP Surround is on.
“SUR” is displayed for 4 seconds. Press
f DOWN or g UP
on the remote control within these 4 seconds.
NOTE
The DSP SURROUND mode is canceled when:
- the ECHO or MIC level is changed.
- Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic is turned on.
- the headphones are plugged in.
- the DIGITAL (Dolby Digital) is turned on (except 2ch ST).
MULTI-AMPLIFIER SYSTEM
To provide reinforcement for the ultra-low frequencies, in addition
to the Left/Right 2-channel amplifier used to reproduce mid-to-
high-range frequencies, this system incorporates a second L/R
2-channel amplifier just for reproduction of ultra-low frequencies.
By utilizing discrete amplifiers for mid to-high-frequencies and
low frequencies, high-quality sonic reproduction that is virtually
free from distortion can be realized.
This Multi Amplifier System, which utilizes independent circuitry
for the different frequency ranges, enables superb sonic
reproduction free from distortion.
BUILT-IN SUBWOOFER SYSTEM
The built-in subwoofer system has a separate subwoofer cavity
area that is part of the loudspeaker cabinet structure, which acts
as a sonic filter to cut distortion components. (In the Multi Amplifier
System, the ultra-low frequency signals transmitted from their
own independent amplifier are reproduced in this area.) This
separate construction gives a clear, rich definition to bass
reproduction and it can realize clear, well-defined mid-to-high
frequency signals.
And AIWA’s built-in subwoofer system incorporates a subwoofer
capable of powerful, satisfying bass performance with true stereo
separation.
