RESTORER
This function restores compressed audio signals to how they
were before compression and corrects the sense of volume of
the bass and treble to obtain richer playback sound.
About the RESTORER function
• Such compressed audio formats as MP3, WMA (Windows Media
Audio) and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating
signal components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The
RESTORER function generates the signals eliminated upon
compression, restoring the sound to conditions near those of the
original sound before compression. It also corrects the sense of
volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio
signals.
• This is displayed on the menu and can be set when the input source
is selected to “XM”, or analog signals (including AM/FM and SIRIUS
signals) or PCM signals (fs = 44.1/48 kHz) are input.
When set to something other than “OFF”, “ ” is displayed.
