• You can use the night listening mode with any sound field
program except Direct Stereo (even though the NIGHT
indicator lights up during Direct Stereo mode).
• Night listening mode may vary in effectiveness depending on
the input source and surround sound settings you use.
■ Virtual CINEMA DSP
Virtual CINEMA DSP allows you to enjoy the CINEMA
DSP programs without surround speakers. It creates
virtual speakers to reproduce the natural sound field.
If you do not connect surround speakers, Virtual CINEMA
DSP activates automatically whenever you select a
CINEMA DSP sound field program.

activate, even when Surround is set to “None” (see page 68).

Press STRAIGHT/EFFECT to select STRAIGHT.
2-channel stereo sources are output from the front left and
right speakers only. Multi-channel sources are decoded
straight into the appropriate channels without any
additional effect processing.

disappears from the display when you want to turn the
sound effect back on.

channel sources.

set 10KEY/AMP to AMP then press STEREO
repeatedly on the remote control) to select

• You can also perform this operation using the GUI remote
