ChAnGinG the leVelS

You can independently change the balance, center level,
surround level, surround back level, and subwoofer level
to alter the balance of sound in your surround system.
Changing the balance alters the level of both the left
and right main loudspeakers to shift the position of the
stereo image, keeping the overall level of the sound the
same. The other adjustments change the level of the
corresponding speaker(s) without affecting the remaining
speakers in the surround system.
To change a level
•
Press the _ button on the front panel, or the
BAL/ST button on the remote control, until the display
shows the level you want to change.

ChooSinG the SUrroUnd Mode

The surround mode determines how the sound is divided
between the loudspeakers in your surround system. Each
source is associated with a default surround mode, which
will be used when you select that source, but you can
choose a different surround mode for the source if you
prefer.
For example, the standard surround mode for the DVB
source is PLIIX Movie, since most TV broadcasts are Pro
Logic encoded, but if you are watching a music concert
you may prefer to choose the Stereo or Bypass surround
modes, as these give a more natural sound when
listening to music.
To change the surround mode
•
Press the AUDIO button on the remote control to
display the current surround mode.
•
Press again to step between the available surround
modes.
The options available depend on the source you are
listening to.
