■ Enjoying stereoscopic sound fields
(CINEMA DSP 3D)
CINEMA DSP 3D enables to create a natural stereoscopic sound
field in your room.
CINEMA DSP 3D functions when both of the following conditions
are met.
- One of the sound programs (except 2ch Stereo and 7ch Stereo) is
selected (p.41).
- “CINEMA DSP 3D MODE” (p.77) in the “Option” menu is set to
“On” (default).
• We recommend using presence speakers to have a full effect of the stereoscopic
sound fields. However, this unit creates Virtual Presence Speaker (VPS) using the
front, center and surround speakers to produce stereoscopic sound fields even
when no presence speakers are connected.
■ Enjoying sound field effects without
surround speakers (Virtual CINEMA DSP)
If you select one of the sound programs (except 2ch Stereo and
7ch Stereo) when no surround speakers are connected, this unit
automatically creates the surround sound field using the front-side
speakers.
Enjoying unprocessed playback
You can play back input sources without any sound field effect
processing.
■ Enjoying unprocessed sounds in original
channels (straight decode)
When the straight decode mode is enabled, each speaker
produces each channel audio signal directly (without sound field
processing). When you play back 2-channel sources such as CD,
stereo sound is heard from the front speakers. When you play back
multi-channel sources, this unit produces unprocessed multi-
channel sounds.

Press STRAIGHT.
Each time you press the key, the straight decode mode is
enabled or disabled.
■ Enjoying unprocessed multi-channel
sounds (surround decoder)
The surround decoder enables unprocessed multi-channel
playback from 2-channel sources. When a multi-channel source is
input, it works the same way as the straight decode mode.
For details on each decoder see “Glossary” (p.117).
