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)
• Center
• 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 60).

• While playing a Super VCD on which the audio

track 2 is not recorded, no sound will come out
when you select “2:STEREO,” “2:1/L” or
“2:2/R.”

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.
If the player is set up to output the signal from
the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL) jack, the
surround effect will only be heard when
“DOLBY DIGITAL” is set to “D-PCM”
(page 60).
