Using the Advanced Sound Retriever
When audio data is removed during the compression
process, sound quality often suffers from an uneven sound
image. The Advanced Sound Retriever feature employs new
DSP technology that helps bring CD quality sound back to
compressed 2-channel audio by restoring sound pressure
and smoothing jagged artifacts left over after compression.
Press
S.RETRIEVER
to switch the S.RTV (Advanced
Sound Retriever) ON or OFF.
Note
The Advanced Sound Retriever mode cannot be set to
ON
,
when the
DIRECT
mode or the
PURE DIRECT
mode is
switched on.
Better sound using Phase Control
This receiver’s Phase Control feature uses phase correction
measures to make sure your sound source arrives at the
listening position in phase, preventing unwanted distortion
and/or coloring of the sound.
Phase Control technology provides coherent sound
reproduction through the use of phase matching for an
optimal sound image at your listening position. The default
setting is on and we recommend leaving Phase Control
switched on for all sound sources.
Press
PHASE
to switch the P.CTL (Phase Control) ON
or OFF.
Note
Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper
sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’, they
crest and trough together, resulting in increased amplitude,
clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest of a wave
meets a trough, then the sound will be ‘out of phase’ and an
unreliable sound image will be produced.
If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the
plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually
feel when Phase Control is set to ON on this receiver
depends on the type of your subwoofer. Set your
subwoofer to maximize the effect. It is also recommended
you try changing the orientation or the place of your
subwoofer.
Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to
OFF. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the
cutoff frequency to a higher value.
If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not
have a maximized Phase Control effect.
The Phase Control mode cannot be set to ON in the
following cases:
-
When the PURE DIRECT mode is switched on.
-
When the headphones are connected.
Setting the Audio options
There are a number of additional sound settings you can
make using the AV ADJUST menu. The defaults, if not
stated, are listed in bold.
Important

menu, it is unavailable due to the current source, settings
