q Noise shaper operation
In this unit, you can select noise shaper on or off for
playing tracks.
The noise shaper is turned on and off by pressing the
NOISE SHAPER
button while the track is stopped.
When turned on, the NSHP indicator lights up on the
LCD.
* Noise shaping is a type of digital feedback used in
the algorithms for oversampling. Digital feedback
improves the linearity of bass sounds and the noise
characteristics of the audio frequency band. However,
this digital feedback is still feedback nonetheless.
Generally, in amplifiers and other equipment, the sound
quality changes based on the amount of feedback. Low
feedback is said to result in poor audio characteristics
but good sound.
Although no measurement differences are shown in the
unit, the sound quality is changed. Therefore, make the
setting according to your preferences.
w DC filter operation
The DC filter is turned on and off by pressing the
DC FILTER
button while the track is stopped. When
turned on, the DCF indicator lights up on the LCD.
* The DC filter is effective when the speakers vibrate
abnormally for discs with recorded audio having extremely
low noise characteristics. (The cutoff frequency is set to
1.7Hz.)
e Digital output off operation
The digital output function is turned on and off by pressing
DIGITAL OUT
the button while the track is stopped.
When digital output is turned off, the D OFF indicator
lights up on the LCD.
• When digital output is not used, setting to digital output
off enables you to enjoy better sound quality.
Note:
The noise shaper, DC filter, and digital output off have
a memory retention function where the settings remain
stored and unchanged even when the disc is changed or
the power is turned off.
