OPERATION

SOUND MODE
Start sound mode
When SACD discs with both multi-channel and stereo
information areas are to be played, this player makes it
possible to set the layer/area (multi-channel or stereo) to be
played first.
q Press the POWER switch to turn on the power of the player.
w If a disc is already on the disc tray, remove it.
“No Disc” now appears on the display.
e Hold down the player’s SOUND MODE button for at least
2 seconds. The currently selected layer/area is displayed.
If the multi-channel layer/area is selected: Start Multi_
If the stereo layer/area is selected: Start Stereo
r The sound mode is switched when the SOUND MODE
button is pressed within 2 seconds.
Even when discs are changed over or the power turned off,
the “start sound mode” setting is stored in the memory and
remains unchanged.
Phantom center function
Concert halls have superb acoustics which are quite
distinctive, and they are referred to as “hall tone.” Provided
that the speaker systems are laid out in their recommended
positions, the SACD multi-channel format makes it possible
to recreate an authentic sound field in which the listener can
actually feel these superb acoustics.
Ideally, the sound should be reproduced through the same
number of speakers as the number of channels recorded on
the discs played, and when this is not possible, there will be
some aspect of the reproduced sound field that will sound
unnatural. In particular, if there is no center speaker, the sound
field at the front will be extended to the left and right and feel
unnatural.
In a situation like this, press the player’s PHANTOM-C button
to turn on the phantom center function in stop mode. This
causes the center channel sound to be distributed to the front
left and right channels, resulting in the synthesis of a virtual
center channel. In this way, the function makes it possible to
recreate a convincing sound field that has almost the same
superb acoustics as the ones that would be reproduced with
the center speaker.
The function is also effective when the center speaker differs
from the stereo speakers.
To play discs recorded with 4 channels (two front and two
surround channels), set the phantom center function to OFF.
