Listening with a virtual
surround back speaker
• Default setting: Vir. SB Off
The Virtual Surround Back feature can be
used when listening in surround sound to
simulate an added surround back channel. In
a real theater the surround back speaker
would be directly behind you, creating more
cohesive and realistic surround sound.
•
Press VIRTUAL SB repeatedly to switch
between 'Vir. SB On' and 'Vir. SB Off'.
• You can't use Virtual Surround Back
when listening in Stereo or Virtual
listening modes.
• You can't use Virtual Surround Back
when headphones are connected.
• If there is no surround channel, Virtual
Surround Back has no effect.
• You can't use the Virtual Surround
Back effect with SACD, DVD-Audio and
96 kHz PCM sources.

Using Quiet and Midnight
listening modes
• Default setting: Off
The Quiet listening feature reduces excessive
bass or treble in a sound source. You can use
this feature if the music is a little bit harsh and
you would like a smoother sound.
The Midnight listening feature allows you to
hear effective surround sound of movies at
low volume levels. The effect automatically
adjusts according to the volume at which
you're listening.
