Listening to high fidelity stereo sound
(Direct Stereo)

Direct Stereo allows you to bypass this unit’s decoders and
DSP processors to enjoy pure high fidelity sound from 2-
channel PCM and analog sources.

Rotate PROGRAM (or set 10 KEY/DSP to DSP,
then press STEREO repeatedly) to select DIRECT
STEREO.

• To avoid unexpected noise, do not play DTS-encoded CDs in

this mode.

• When multi-channel signals (Dolby Digital and DTS) are input,

this unit automatically selects an analog signal input. (When
DTS is selected as an input mode, no sound will be heard.)

• No sound will be output from the subwoofer.
• TONE CONTROL (page 31) and SET MENU (page 49)

settings are not effective.

• The front panel display automatically dims.

■

Listening at night

This mode reproduces dialogue clearly while reducing the
volume of loud sound effects for easier listening at low
volumes or at night.

Press NIGHT on the remote control.

The NIGHT indicator in the front panel
display lights up.
Press NIGHT again to cancel. The
NIGHT indicator goes off.

• You can use the night listening mode with any sound field

programs except Direct Stereo (even though the NIGHT
indicator lights up during Direct Stereo mode).
