Settings
(TVS)
When you connect a stereo TV or 2 front
speakers, TVS (TV Virtual Surround) lets
you enjoy surround sound effects by using
sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers
from the sound of the front speakers (L: left,
R: right) without using actual rear speakers.
TVS was developed by Sony to produce
surround sound for home use using just a
stereo TV.
This only works when playing a multichannel
Dolby audio soundtrack. Furthermore, if the
player is set up to output the signal from the
DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL)
jack, the surround effect will only be heard
when “DOLBY DIGITAL” is set to
“D-PCM” and “MPEG” is set to “PCM” in
“AUDIO SETUP” (page 66).

TVS DYNAMIC THEATER
Creates one set of LARGE virtual rear
speakers and virtual subwoofer from the
sound of the front speakers (L, R) without
using actual rear speakers and subwoofer
(shown below).
This mode is effective when the distance
between the front L and R speakers is short,
such as with built-in speakers on a stereo TV.
