You can enjoy a powerful bass-boosted
sound.
"MEGABASS2" enhances the bass sound
more than "MEGABASS1."
Notes
• When you select an effect, the sound cuts off for a
moment.
• When the playing signal does not contain a signal for
the rear speakers (page 42), the surround effects may
be difficult to hear.
• Depending on the headphones, the surround effect
may be difficult to hear.
• When you select one of the virtual surround items in
sound mode, turn off the surround setting of the
connected TV or amplifier (receiver).
• If the sound is distorted when "MEGABASS1" or
"MEGABASS2" is selected, turn down the volume.
