Playing in the DENON original surround
modes
This unit is equipped with a high performance DSP (Digital Signal
Processor) which uses digital signal processing to synthetically
recreate the sound field. One of 3 preset surround modes can be
selected according to the program source and the parameters
can be adjusted according to the conditions in the listening room
to achieve a more realistic, powerful sound. These surround
modes can also be used for program sources not recorded in
Dolby Surround Pro Logic or Dolby Digital.
Depending on the source being played, the effect may not be
very strong.
In such cases, try other surround modes without paying too
much attention to their names and choose the one you feel is
best.
Use this mode to achieve the feeling of a
live concert in an arena with reflected
sounds coming from all directions.
This mode creates the sound field of a live
house with a low ceiling and hard walls.
This mode gives jazz a very vivid realism.
