Notes on sound fields
• Depends on the speaker pattern settings,
some sound fields may not be available.
• The effects provided by the virtual speakers
may cause increased noise in the playback
signal.
• When listening with sound fields that
employ the virtual speakers, you will not be
able to hear any sound coming directly from
the surround speakers.
• The sound fields for music and movie do not
work in the following cases.
– signals with a sampling frequency of more
than 48 kHz is input.
– Analog Direct is selected.
• When multi channel Linear PCM signals are
received via an HDMI IN jack, “A.F.D.
AUTO” will be selected automatically.
• When one of the sound fields for music is
selected, no sound is output from the
subwoofer if all the speakers are set to
“LARGE” on the SPEAKER menu.
However, the sound will be output from the
subwoofer if
– the digital input signal contains LFE
signals.
– the front and surround speakers are set to
“SMALL”.
– the sound field for movie is selected.
– the portable audio is selected.
