Setup menus

3. Listening Mode Setup menu

This menu allows you to make adjustments to the various listening
modes. These adjustments are in the form of parameters and each
one is explained below. Note that some parameters cannot be set for
some listening modes and that no sub-menu will have all parameters.
Also, for some input signal formats, changes in the listening mode
parameters may actually result in no change to the resulting output
signal.

Description listening mode parameters

Subwoofer
Set this to "Off" if you are not using a subwoofer (even if one is
connected). If "No" is selected for the Subwoofer setting in the
Speaker Config sub-menu, then this setting will not appear.
Front Effect
You can choose from "Low," "Middle," or "High."
Some live recordings contain acoustic reverberation. When you play
these sources, more reverberation will be applied by the DSP,
creating too much reverb effects and the sound loses frame or
presence. In this case, set this setting to "Low." No reverberation
from the DSP will be applied to the sound output from the three front
channels, so the sound source is be played as it is without any further
reverberation.
Surround Effect
You can choose from "Low," "Middle," or "High."
This adjusts the reflected and residual noises from the surround left
and right speakers.
