Digital Cinema Sound Settings - Sony DVP-F11X Operating Instructions Manual

Digital Cinema Sound Settings Z
Select the mode to enjoy multichannel surround sound
such as Dolby Digital and MPEG.
Even if you connect only front speakers, Virtual Enhanced
Surround (VES) lets you enjoy 3D sound by using 3D
sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers from the
sound of the front speakers (L: left, R: right) without using
actual rear speakers.
You can feel the more effective 3D sound when you
connect a receiver (amplifier) with digital (optical or
coaxial) input, 2 front speakers, 2 rear speakers, 1 center
speaker and 1 subwoofer.
Select "VES" after pressing DISPLAY. When you select
the item except "OFF," the "VES" indicator lights up in
green.

Notes
• You cannot select "VES" when "DOLBY DIGITAL" is set to
"DOLBY DIGITAL" in "AUDIO SETUP."
• In case that the player outputs the signal from OPTICAL and
COAXIAL , the surround effect will be heard only when you
set "MPEG" to "PCM" in "AUDIO SETUP."
• Some discs do not have rear sound. In this case, you cannot get
the 3D surround effect.
• When you select an item, the sound cuts off for a moment.
• When the playing signal does not contain the surround
component, the effects may be difficult to hear even if you
select "VES A" or "VES B."
• Set the front speakers to form an equilateral triangle with the
listening position at the top, or the effects may be difficult to
hear even if you select "VES A" or "VES B."
• When you connect a subwoofer, you can also hear the sound
from the subwoofer.
• When you select "VES A" or "VES B," set the surround settings
of the connected units, such as the amplifier, to OFF.
