VES (Virtual Enhanced Surround)
NIGHT
The large sounds, such as explosions, are
compressed, but the quieter sounds are
unaffected. This feature is useful when you
don't want to disturb other people but still want
to hear the dialog and enjoy the surround sound
effects of VIRTUAL SEMI MULTI
DIMENSION. The volume may increase when
you switch to this effect. Turn down the
volume after switching to this effect.
VES (Virtual Enhanced Surround) A
Uses sound imaging to create 3 sets of virtual
rear speakers from the sound of the front
speakers (L, R) without using actual rear
speakers. The virtual speakers are reproduced
as shown in the illustration below. Use this
setting to enhance the sound quality.

Notes
• When you select an item, the sound cuts off for a
moment. When you change the item while
recording, a track number may marked at the point.
• When the playing signal does not contain a signal
for the rear speakers, the surround effects may be
difficult to hear.
• Make sure that your listening position is between
and at an equal distance from your speakers, and
that the speakers are located in similar
surroundings. Otherwise, the VES effect may be
hard to discern.
• "VES NIGHT" only works with Dolby Digital
discs. However, not all discs will respond to the
"VES NIGHT" in the same way.
• If you use the DIGITAL OUT jack, sound will
come from your speakers but it will not have the
VES effect.
