■ Using sound field programs without
surround speakers (Virtual CINEMA
DSP)
Virtual CINEMA DSP allows you to enjoy the CINEMA
DSP programs without surround speakers by creating
virtual speakers.
If you set "SUR. L/R SP" to "NONE" (see page 52),
Virtual CINEMA DSP activates automatically whenever
you select a CINEMA DSP or HiFi DSP program (see
page 35).
Note
Virtual CINEMA DSP will not activate even when "SUR. L/R
SP" is set to "NONE" (see page 52) in the following cases:
– When "5ch Stereo" (see page 35) is selected.
– When headphones are connected to the PHONES jack.
■ Enjoying multi-channel sources and
sound field programs with headphones
(SILENT CINEMA)
SILENT CINEMA allows you to enjoy multi-channel
music or movie sound, including Dolby Digital and DTS
sources, through ordinary headphones. SILENT CINEMA
activates automatically whenever you connect headphones
to the PHONES jack while listening to CINEMA DSP or
HiFi DSP sound field programs (see page 35). When
activated, the SILENT CINEMA indicator lights up in the
front panel display.
Note
SILENT CINEMA does not activate when the component
connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks is selected as the input
source (see page 31).

(Straight decoding mode)
When this unit is in the "STRAIGHT" mode, multi-

channels without any additional effect processing. 2-
channel stereo sources are output from only the front left
and right speakers.
Press B STRAIGHT (or set the operation mode
selector (K) to AMP and then press
S STRAIGHT) to select "STRAIGHT".
To deactivate the "STRAIGHT" mode, press
B STRAIGHT (or S STRAIGHT) again so that
"STRAIGHT" disappears from the front panel display.
