Listening Modes

DHT-S514 includes three Listening Modes for diﬀerent kinds of audio programs, room acoustics, or personal preferences. It also has a special

“Night Mode,” which enhances low-volume listening, which is described in the following section.

Select a Listening Mode using either Listening Mode key

(front panel or remote). Each keypress advances in sequence through the three

modes – Dialog, Music and Movie. DHT-S514’s front panel key LEDs momentarily display a pattern representing each newly selected mode.

The following information describes the various listening modes, and shows an illustration of the LED pattern displayed when that mode is

selected.

Note: The LED displays used to indicate the various Listening Modes are simple horizontal display patterns—there is no c orrespondence

between the lit LEDs and their underlying key functions.

Dialog mode highlights center-recorded sounds

such as movie dialog, television announcers,

or musical soloists; it is valuable for everyday

television viewing.

Music mode widens the “soundstage” somewhat

for a more enveloping, involving sound.

Movie mode deploys DHT-S514’s maximum

processing for the “biggest” possible sound on

action ﬁlms or other large-scale content.

Night Mode

Night Mode improves low-volume listening by subtly lifting softer sounds, and lowering very loud ones. While you may use Night Mode

whenever you like, for maximum dynamic realism from television programming, movies or music, leave night mode turned oﬀ.

To engage Night Mode, press the Day/Night button

on the remote control press, or press and hold the front panel Listening Mode button

for three seconds. When Night Mode is engaged, the LED pattern for the current Listening Mode dimly lights. To exit Night Mode, use

the same buttons in the same way. When DHT-S514 exits Night Mode, the LED pattern for the current listening mode brightly lights.
