LISTENING IN DSP MODE
The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) modes transform your living room into a variety of different sound
environments when playing standard (two channel) stereo sources. Optionally, you can adjust the amount
of effect added to the source. The descriptions below give an idea of how the five different modes sound,
but you might want to play a source and experiment.
HALL
Simulates the acoustic environment of a large
classical concert hall. Long delay and reverb
decay times create a sense of music being played
in a large space.
JAZZ
Simulates the acoustic environment of a jazz
club. Shorter delay times and a tighter reverb
help to give the sound a live, small club feel.

3 Use the EFFECT +/– buttons to adjust the DSP effect level.
You can adjust the effect level within an range of 10–90 (the
default settinig is 50).
• The settings for effect level in DSP mode are
independent of the effect level in PRO LOGIC with
THEATER 1 and PRO LOGIC with THEATER 2
modes.
• You can input level settings spefically for the DSP
mode and this will enhance your surround sound
experience (see page 16).
• If you turn on DSP when the speakes are off, SP OFF
flashes, indicating DSP is not available when the
speakers are off.
• You cannot use the tone controls or the DIRECT
function with DSP mode.
