Using the DSP Modes
The built-in Surround
Processor
provides three types of the DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
mode -- 3D-PHONIC mode,
DAP (Digital Acoustic
Processor)
mode and Surround
mode.
3D-PHONIC
modes
The 3D-PHONIC
mode gives you such a nearly
surround
effect as it
is reproduced
through
the Dolby
Surround
decoder,
which is widely
used to reproduce
sounds
with a feeling
of movement
like those
experienced
in movie theaters.
The 3D-PHONIC
mode is the result
of research
on sound localization
technology
carried
out at JVC for
many years,
rhls
mode can be used when
the front speakers
are
connected
to this receiver
(without
respect
to the rear/center
speaker
connection).
• You can select either
3DACTION
or 3D THEATER
to your
preference
when playing
an analog
or Linear
PCM (digital)
source.
• You can select either
3D DIGITAL
or 3D THEATER
to your
preference
when playing
a Dolby
Digital
source.
3D ACTION:
Best for action and war movies
where
the
action is fast and explosive.
3D DIGITAL:
Reproduces
multi-sound
source encoded
with
Dolby
Digital.
3D THEATER:
Reproduces
the sound field of a large theater.
This
mode can be selected
when only front speakers
are
connected

and "REAR
SPK" and
"CENTER
SPK" is set to "NONE"
(see page 14).
Note on the subwootYr

selected
3D-PHONIC
mode.

a multi-sound
source

...... If"FRONT
SPK" is set to "SMALL,"
sound comes
out while
playing
any source.
...... If"FRONT
SPK" is set to "LARGE,"

subwoofer
channel
signals
come into this receiver
([_

DAP modes
The sound heard
in a concert
hall or club consists
of direct sound
and indirect
sound
early reflections
and reflections
from behind.
Direct
sounds
reach the listener
directly
without
any reflection.
On
the other hand,
indirect
sounds
are delayed
by the distances
of the
ceiling
and walls.
These direct sounds
and indirect
sounds
are the
most important
elements
of the acoustic
smxound
effects.
The DAP
mode
can create these important
elements,
and gives you a real
"being
there" feeling.
This
mode
can be used when the front
speakers
are connected
to this receiver
(without
respect
to the
rear]center
speaker
connection).
You can select one of the following
to your preference.
LIVE
CLUB:
Gives the feeling
of a live music
club with a low
ceiling.
DANCE
CLUB:
Gives a throbbing
bass beat.
HALL:
Gives clear vocal and the feeling
of a concert
hall.
PAVILION:
Gives the spacious
feeling
of a pavilion
with a high
ceiling.
