About the Listening Modes: Dialog Mode highlights center-recorded sounds such as movie dialog, television announcers,
or musical soloists; it' s valuable for everyday television viewing. Music Mode produces conventional stereo sound. Music-Wide
widens the "soundstage" somewhat for a more enveloping, involving sound. Movie Mode adds ambient and rear effects to the
widening process for a surround-like experience. Movie-Wide deploys TVee One' s maximum processing for the "biggest" pos-
sible sound on action films or other large-scale content.
In larger, or acoustically "hard, " reverberant rooms TVee One' s Music-Wide and Movie-Wide modes may yield enough ambi-
ent and reflective sounds to impinge on clarity or dialog-intelligibility; in such cases the "plain" Music and Movie modes will be
preferable.
To invoke Night Mode, press and hold the "listening mode" button (
day/night ( ) button on the remote control. The LEDs of the current Listening Mode patter will flash bright.
To exit NightMode, press-hold again; the LEDs will flash dim.
About Day/Night Mode: Night Mode makes low-volume listening more rewarding by subtly lifting softer sounds, and lower-
ing very loud ones. While you may use Night Mode whenever you like, for maximum dynamic realism from television program-
ming, movies or music, exit Night Mode.
About the TVee One Display
The eight LED lamps illuminating each front-panel key comprise TVee One's display, and will flash or illuminate in various pat-

Power Momentarily bright when TVee One is turning on/waking from sleep; steadily dim while on/
awake (operating mode); steadily dark when TVee One is "asleep" in standby mode or powered off;
flashes when toggling between manual- and auto-on/off/standby modes
Television Input Momentarily bright when Television Input is selected, whether manually or automati-
cally by active signal at any wired input
Bluetooth Input Flashes bright while Bluetooth is "pairing" a wireless device; steadily bright when
selected and playing a paired device.
The Bluetooth LED will flash bright, slowly, while attempting to re-pair a device that has passed out of range or
otherwise lost wireless contact, and blink rapidly to indicate a Bluetooth error (unable to pair). This will cease
after 60 seconds or if any TVee One key is pressed.
Learning Flashes when learning functions from your remote (see "Programming TVee One, " below).
Listening Mode Flashes once when pressed at the front panel, and selects the next Listening Mode
(see "About Listening Modes, " above).
To help you identify Modes from across the room, whenever you select a new Listening Mode from the remote control (only) TVee
One briefly illuminates a pattern of the 8 front-panel key LEDs, spatially representing the new Mode as follows:
