You can enjoy sound effects or dialogue, as you
would in a movie theater, even at low volume. It
is useful for watching movies at night.
Press NIGHT.
“NIGHT ON” appears in the front panel display
and the sound effect is activated.
Note
• This effect does not work for a Super Audio CD.
When you load a Super Audio CD during “NIGHT
ON,” the sound effect turns off automatically.
• When sound is output from the center speaker, this
effect is more pronounced, as speech (movie dialog,
etc.) is easy to hear. When sound is not output from
the center speaker, or you are using the headphones,
the system optimally adjusts the volume.
To turn off the sound effect
Press NIGHT again.
You can enhance compressed sound such as an
MP3 audio file.

When all the conditions above are satisfied, you
can activate/deactivate the effect by pressing
DMPORT BOOSTER on the unit. The
DMPORT BOOSTER indicator turns on.
