Listening in DSP Mode
The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) modes transform your living room into a variety of different sound
environments when playing standard (two channel) stereo sources. Optionally, you can adjust the amount of
effect added to the source. The descriptions below give an idea of what the five different modes sound like, but
the best idea is to play a source and experiment.
HALL
Simulates the acoustic environment of a large
classical concert hall. Long delay and reverb decay
times create a sense of music being played in a
large space.
JAZZ
Simulates the acoustic environment of a jazz club.
Shorter delay times and a tighter reverb help to give
the sound a live, small club feel.

• The settings for effect level in DSP mode are independent
of the effect level in PRO LOGIC THEATER1 and PRO LOGIC
THEATER2 modes.
• You can input level settings spefically for the DSP mode and
this will enhance you surround sound experience (see page.
16).
• If you try and turn DSP on when the speakes are off, SP
OFF will flash on the display, informing you that you can't
turn on DSP when the speakers are off.
• You can't use the tone controls, or the DIRECT function
with DSP mode.
