Using the DAP Modes
You can use five DAP modes — “Dance Club, Live Club, Hall, Pavilion, and
Headphones.” These modes (except “Headphones”) require the front speakers and the
rear speakers, but do not require a center speaker to enlarge the sound field.
Among the DAP modes, “Headphones” is very special. It can create the same stereo
sound as you listen through the speakers off air while listening to a source using
headphones. So, you can feel as if you were not using the headphones and listening to
music in a room.
On the front panel:

When changing the DAP modes
to “PAVILION” or “HALL,” a
reverberation sound comes out.

reverberation is applied to these
two modes.
