◆Night
Large sounds, such as explosions, are suppressed, but quieter
sounds are unaffected. This feature is useful when you want to
hear the dialogue and enjoy the surround sound effects of
“Wide” at low volume.
◆Standard
Creates three sets of virtual rear speakers from the sound of the
actual front speakers (L, R) as shown below.
This mode is effective when you use two separate front speakers.
To cancel the setting
Select “Off.”
z Hint
You can select the TVS mode from the Tool menu (page 62).
Notes
• If the playback signal does not contain a signal for the rear speakers,
surround effects will be difficult to hear.
• When you select one of the surround modes, turn off the surround
setting of the connected TV or amplifier (receiver).
• Make sure that your listening position is between and at an equal
distance from your speakers, and that the speakers are located in
similar surroundings.
• Not all discs will respond to the “Night” function in the same way.
• The TVS function cannot be used with discs recorded on this recorder.
• When you use the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL) jack to listen to MPEG
audio signals and set “MPEG” to “MPEG” in Audio Setup, no sound
will come from your speakers if you select one of the TVS modes.
