About audio signals
Audio signals recorded in a disc contain the
sound elements (channels) shown below.
Each channel is output from a separate
speaker.
• Front (L)
• Front (R)
• Centre
• Rear (L)
• Rear (R)
• Rear (Monaural): This signal can be either
the Dolby Surround Sound processed
signals or the Dolby Digital sound’s
monaural rear audio signals.
• LFE (Low Frequency Effect) signal
Notes
• If “DTS” is set to “OFF” in “AUDIO SETUP,”
the DTS track selection option will not appear on
the screen even if the disc contains DTS tracks
(page 68).
• MPEG audio signals with more than two channels
will appear as shown above (3/2.1, 2/1), but only
the Front (L) and Front (R) signals will be output
from your two front speakers.
TV Virtual Surround
Settings
(TVS)
When you connect a stereo TV or 2 front
speakers, TVS (TV Virtual Surround) lets
you enjoy surround sound effects by using
sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers
from the sound of the front speakers (L: left,
R: right) without using actual rear speakers.
TVS was developed by Sony to produce
surround sound for home use using just a
stereo TV.
This only works when playing a multichannel
Dolby audio soundtrack. Furthermore, if the
player is set up to output the signal from the
DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL* or COAXIAL)
jack, the surround effect will only be heard
when “DOLBY DIGITAL” is set to
“D-PCM” in “AUDIO SETUP” (page 68).
