d.
You shouldn’t have any problems using this with most SACD
discs, but if the sound distorts, it is best to switch the gain
setting back to
0
dB.
e.
This feature is only available when the connected display
supports the automatic audio/video synchronizing capability
(‘lip-sync’) for HDMI. If you find the automatically set delay time
unsuitable, set
A.DLY
to
OFF
and adjust the delay time
manually. For more details about the lip-sync feature of your
display, contact the manufacturer directly.
f.
Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper
sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’, they crest
and trough together, resulting in increased amplitude, clarity
and presence of the sound signal. If a crest of a wave meets a
trough, then the sound will be ‘out of phase’ and an unreliable
sound image will be produced.
If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the plus
(+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually feel when
Phase Control is set to
ON
on this receiver depends on the type
of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer to maximize the effect.
It is also recommended you try changing the orientation or the
place of your subwoofer.
Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to OFF.
If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff
frequency to a higher value.
If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have a
maximized Phase Control effect.
The Phase Control mode cannot be set to
ON
in the following
cases:
– When the
PURE DIRECT
mode is switched on.
– When the headphones are connected.
