Dimension
–3 to 0 to +3
With this setting, you can move the sound field forward
or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music
listening mode. Higher settings move the sound field
backward. Lower settings move it forward.
If the stereo image feels too wide, or there's too much
surround sound, move the sound field forward to
improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image
feels like it's in mono, or there's not enough surround
sound, move it backward.
Center Width
0 to 3 to 7
With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound
from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro
Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally, if you're
using a center speaker, the center channel sound is out-
put by only the center speaker. (If you're not using a
center speaker, the center channel sound will be distrib-
uted to the front left and right speakers to create a phan-
tom center). This setting controls the front left, right,
and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the
center channel sound.

PLIIz Height Gain
The Height Gain Control in Dolby Pro Logic IIz
enables the listener to select how much gain is applied
to the front high speakers. There are three settings,
"Low", "Mid" and "High", and the front high speakers
are accentuated in that order. While "Mid" is the default
listening setting, the listener may adjust the Height Gain
Control to their personal preference.
Low:
Low PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.
Mid:
Medium PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.
High:
High PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.
Note
• If the "Front High" settings is set to "None"
cannot be selected.

Neo:6 Music
Center Image
0 to 2 to 5
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.
Setting a value "0" in the middle is set to hear a sound.
Sound is spread in left and right (the outside) so that the
set value is made big. Please adjust by liking.
Listening Angle
Wide:
Select if the listening angle is 40 degrees.
Narrow:
Select if the listening angle is 20 degrees.
With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-Dimen-
sional listening mode by specifying the angle of the
front left and right speakers relative to the listening
position. 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.
