whatever sound level you like, without affecting the sound levels of

the recording.

Note:

The output volume level, tone adjustment (see page 10), bass boost

(see page 10) and DSP modes (see page !8) cannot affect the

recording.

When you have connected the MD recorder to the TAPE/MD jacks

or the DBS tuner to the TV SOUND/DBS jacks on the rear panel,

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. 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 either 3D ACTION or 3D THEATER to your

preference when playing an analog or Linear PCM (digital)

source.

3D ACTION: Best for action and war movies where the

action is t:ast and explosive.

3D "l HEATER: Reproduces the sound field of a large theater. This

mode can be selected when only front speakers are

connected to this receiver and "REAR SPK" and

"CENTER SPK" is set to "NONE" (see page 12).

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 sin-round 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.
