Enjoying the Sound Effects
Choosing Theater-Dimensional Mode
Theater-Dimensional mode is the technology which controls
the characteristics of the sounds reaching the listener's left
and right ears, therefore, there is a sweet spot where you
can best experience the Theater-Dimensional effects. You
need to adjust the location of the sweet spot and these other
factors for the best possible Theater-Dimensional effect.

The listening angle is the angle at the listening position
where the two lines from the left and right speakers meet.
You need to adjust the listening angle in the following
cases:
• Consider the listening angle as being formed from the
left and right front speakers since the virtual surround
signals are output from the front speakers.
Set "LSTN. ANGLE" to one of the following settings, which
you feel is most effective (the listening angles in
parentheses are ideal):
• Normal (30°)
• Wide (40°)
• Narrow (20°)
Notes
• Theater-Dimensional mode cannot be activated if;
– Headphones are connected, or
– The source is PCM sound with a sampling frequency higher than
48kHz.
• Theater-Dimensional mode will be canceled and the T-D indicator
goes off when:
– Another listening mode is chosen, or
– The input source is switched to a type of source which Theater-
Dimensional mode cannot process.
