Adjustment of DELAY TIME
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound with
the DELAY TIME keys.
The DELAY TIME keys are effective with all programs.
By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background
noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear speakers
can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect.
1
PRO LOGIC:
from 15 to 30 milliseconds
(Preset value: 20 milliseconds)
2 ENHANCED:
from 15 to 30 milliseconds
(Preset value: 20 milliseconds)
3 CONCERT VIDEO: from 1 to 100 milliseconds
(Preset value: 25 milliseconds)
4 MONO MOVIE:
from 1 to 100 milliseconds
(Preset value: 25 milliseconds)
5 ROCK CONCERT: from 1 to 100 milliseconds
(Preset value: 15 milliseconds)
6 CONCERT HALL:
from 1 to 100 milliseconds
(Preset value: 30 milliseconds)
By continuously pressing “+” or “–” of the DELAY TIME keys,
the value changes continuously.
However, the value stops changing momentarily at the preset
point.
Note
Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with
some sources. Experiment with the DELAY TIME keys to
create an effect that you find most suitable.
To obtain the best performance of this unit:
If the connecting way of your components is A or C shown
on pages 6–8, set the volume control on the integrated
amplifier or control amplifier to about the halfway position
between the min. and max.
Notes
●
If you prefer to cancel the selected program, press the OFF
switch. The sound will be the normal 2-channel stereo
without surround sound effect.
●
In the CONCERT VIDEO, MONO MOVIE, ROCK
CONCERT and CONCERT HALL, no sound is heard from
the center speaker.
●
When the monaural sound source is played in the DOLBY
PRO LOGIC or ENHANCED, no sound is heard from the
front speakers and the rear speakers. Sound is heard only
from the center speaker. However, if the center mode is in
the PHANTOM, the front speakers output the sound of the
center speaker.
●
If the connected external amplifier has a built-in surround
sound or ambience circuitry, be sure that the surround or
ambience circuitry on that amplifier is off while you are using
this unit’s Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoding function.
●
When this unit is in the Dolby Pro Logic Surround mode, if
the main-source sound is considerably altered by
overadjustment of the BASS or TREBLE controls on the
integrated amplifier etc., the relationship with the center and
rear channels may produce an unnatural effect.
