MASTER VOLUME
Listening Only with Headphones
You can listen with the headphones without deactivating both pairs
of speakers by connecting a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack
on the front panel. If you want to use a pair of headphones without
outputting sounds from the front speakers, you must turn off both
pairs of the front speakers as mentioned above.
HEADPHONE mode
When using the headphones, the following signals are output
regardless of your speaker setting:
— For 2 channel software, the front left and right channel signals
are output directly from the headphones.
— For multi-channel software, the front left and right, center, and
surround channel signals are down-mixed and then output
from the headphones.
• If a DSP mode is activated, you can enjoy the DSP effects.
“3D H.PHONE” appears on the display and the DSP indicator
lights up on the display. (See page 34.)
Note:
In the following cases, the speakers connected to the FRONT
SPEAKERS
2
terminals are deactivated even if both pairs of the front
speakers are activated.
– If you select “DVD MULTI” as the source.
– If you select any of the Surround/DSP modes which activate the
center and/or surround speaker(s).
CAUTION:
Be sure to turn down the volume:
• Before connecting or putting on headphones, as its high volume can
damage both the headphones and your hearing.
• Before turning on speakers again, as its high volume may output
from the speakers.
