Night Mode
When set to ON, the dynamics of your sound
output are optimized. High volume outputs are
softened, enabling you to watch your favorite
action movie without disturbing others.
Karaoke vocal
Put this setting to ON only when a multi-channel
karaoke DVD is being played. The karaoke
channels on the disc will then be mixed into a
normal stereo sound.
SACD Bass Management Bypass
Allows you (with suitable speaker system) to
bypass the bass management system for multi-
channel SACD playback.
This helps to preserve maximum sound quality
of your SACD.
Warning!
When SACD Bass Management Bypass
is ON, speaker setting will not be applied
during multi-channel SACD playback.
