Using the position selector
One way to assure a more natural sound is to
optimize the stereo image and place you right in
the center of the sound field. With the position
selector function, you can automatically adjust
the speaker output levels and insert a delay time
to match the number and position of the occu-
pied seats. When used in conjunction with the
SFC, this feature will make the sound image
more natural and offer a panoramic sound that
envelops you.

Using sound field control
The SFC function creates the sensation of a live
performance.
!
The acoustics of performance spaces differ
depending on the extent and contour of
space through which sound waves can move
and on how the created sounds bounce off
the stage, walls, floors and ceilings. At a live
performance you hear music in three stages:
direct sound, early reflections, and late re-
flections, or reverberations. These factors are
programmed into the SFC circuitry to recre-
ate the acoustics of various performance set-
tings.
