Advanced Setup—Continued
PLIIx/Neo:6 Music Mode Settings
These settings provide for playing any 2-channel digital
source such as Dolby Digital, or 2-channel analog/PCM
source in the Dolby PLIIx Music listening mode.
■ Panorama
With this function, you can broaden the width of the
front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic II
Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode.
On: Panorama function on.
Off: Panorama function off (default).
■ Dimension
With this setting, you can move the sound field forward
or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music
or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. It can be
adjusted from –3 to +3 (default is 0). Lower settings
move the sound field forward. Higher settings move it
backward.
If the stereo image feels too wide, or there is too much
surround sound, move the sound field forward to
improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image
feels like it is in mono, or there is not enough surround
sound, move it backward.
■ Center Width
With this function, you can adjust the width of the sound
from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic
II Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode.
Normally
if you are using a center speaker, the center channel
sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you are not
using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be
distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a
phantom center.) This setting controls the front left,
right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight
of the center channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to
7 (default is 3).
■ Center Image
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel
surround sound from 2-channel (stereo) sources. With
this setting, you can specify by how much the front left
and right channel output is attenuated in order to create
the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5 (default
is 2). This setting is unavailable if no surround speakers
are connected.
When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is
attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the
sound is located centrally. This setting works well when
the listening position is considerably off center. When
set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenu-
ated, maintaining the original stereo balance.
Dolby EX Input Signal Setting
■ Dolby EX
This setting determines how Dolby EX encoded signals
are handled. This setting is unavailable if no surround
back speakers are connected. This setting is effective
with Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus only.
Auto: If the source signal contains a Dolby EX flag,
the Dolby EX listening mode is used
(default).
Manual: You can select any available listening mode.
T-D (Theater-Dimensional) Listening
Setting
■ Listening Angle
With this setting, you can specify the angle of the front
left and right speakers relative to the listening position.
Processing for the Theater-Dimensional listening mode
is based on this setting. Ideally, the front left and right
speakers should be equidistant from the listening position
and at an angle close to one of the two available settings.
Front left speaker
Narrow: Select if the listening angle is 20 degrees.
Wide: Select if the listening angle is 40 degrees
(default).
Front right speaker
20/40˚
