! The acoustics of different performance en-

vironments are not the same and depend

on the extent and contour of space through

which sound waves move and on how

sounds bounce off the stage, walls, floors

and ceilings. At a live performance you

hear music in three stages: direct sound,

early reflections, and late reflections, or re-

verberations. Those factors are programed

into the SFC circuitry to recreate the acous-

tics of various performance settings.

1 Press EQ and hold to switch to SFC

function.

Press EQ and hold until SFC appears in the

display.

# To switch to equalizer function, press EQ and
hold again.

mode.

Press EQ repeatedly to switch between the fol-

lowing mode:

MUSICAL (musical)DRAMA (drama)

ACTION (action)JAZZ (jazz)HALL (hall)

CLUB (club)OFF (off)

Note

If the source is a 2-channel LPCM audio or a 2-
channel Dolby Digital audio and you select SFC
effects that are most applicable for 5.1-channel
audio (i.e., MUSICAL, DRAMA or ACTION), we
recommend turning Dolby Pro Logic on. On the
other hand, when selecting SFC effects that are
intended for use with 2-channel audio (i.e., JAZZ,
HALL or CLUB), we recommend turning Dolby
Pro Logic off.

Using the position selector

One way to assure a more natural sound is to

accurately position the stereo image, putting

you right in the center of the sound field. The

position selector function lets you automati-

cally adjust the speaker output levels and in-

serts a delay time to match the number and

position of occupied seats. When used in con-

junction with the SFC, the feature will make

the sound image more natural and offer a pa-

noramic sound that envelops you.

1 Touch A.MENU and DSP and then touch

POSITION.

2 Touch c/d/a/b to select a listening po-

sition.

Touch one of these, c/d/a/b, to select a lis-

tening position as listed in the table.

Note

When you make adjustments for listening posi-
tion, the speakers are automatically set for appro-
priate output levels. You can tailor them if you
want as discussed under the heading of Adjust-
ing the speaker output levels using a test tone or
Adjusting the speaker output levels.

Using balance adjustment

You can select a fader/balance setting that

provides an ideal listening environment in all

occupied seats.
