LISTENING MODE MENU OPTION & PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS (continued)
Note the following:
• Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding cannot be engaged unless
both side and rear speakers are present.
• When the Shift command bank is activated, pressing the
remote control DOLBY button while a 5.1-channel Dolby
Digital source is present activates the Dolby DIGITAL EX or
Dolby DIGITAL listening mode. Subsequent presses adjust the
EX DECODING parameter, cycling through the AUTO, ON, and
OFF settings.
This parameter is available in 5.1 PLIIx MOV, 5.1 PLIIx MUS, and
DOLBY DIGITAL (EX) modes.
FRONT STEERING OFF, MSURR, MUSIC, FILM
Adjusts front steering between the front left, front right, and center
speakers. When set to FILM, maximum front steering is applied to the
center channel. When set to MUSIC, moderate front steering is
applied. When set to MSURR, minimum front steering is applied.
When set to OFF, no front steering is applied. You should set this
parameter to FILM for film and broadcast sources and to MUSIC,
MSURR or OFF for music sources. Available in L7 TV, L7 MUSIC, L7
MUSIC SURR, 5.1 L7 TV, 5.1 L7 MUSIC, dts L7 MUSIC, , and 5.1mc L7
MUSIC modes.
INPUT BALANCE L< to <|> to >R
Controls the balance of the selected stereo analog audio input
connectors, compensating for audio input sources with audible
channel imbalance. Available in PANORAMA mode.
LFE OFF, -30.0 to +12dB
Controls the output level of the Main Zone audio output connector
labeled LFE. The OUTPUT LEVELS menu does not include the LFE
parameter unless an LFE subwoofer is present. Available in all 5.1
Dolby Digital modes, except 5.1 2-CHANNEL, 5.1 MONO LOGIC, 5.1
MONO SURR, and 5.1 MONO. Also available in 5.1mc L7 FILM, 5.1mc
L7 MUSIC, 5.1mc THX, 5.1mc THX MUSIC, 5.1mc STANDARD, 5.1a
BYPASS, DTS L7 FILM, DTS L7 MUSIC, DTS THX, DTS THX MUSIC, and
DTS modes.
LFE MIX -20.0 or -10.0 to +0.0dB
Controls the output level of LFE information – the .1 channel in a
5.1-channel or 6.1-channel input source – that is sent to the audio
output labeled Subwoofer. Low frequencies from up to seven other
channels may be combined with the LFE information to create the
subwoofer output signal, which significantly increases subwoofer
output levels.
Careful adjustment of this parameter allows achievement of proper
tonal balance and reduces the risk of subwoofer overload. When the
speaker setup does not include a subwoofer, LFE information is mixed
into speakers for which the corresponding CUSTOM SETUP menu
parameter is set to FULL or to the lowest crossover points. Available in
all DTS and all Dolby Digital modes except MONO modes (5.1 MONO
LOGIC, 5.1 MONO SURR, 5.1 MONO), and all 5.1mc modes except
5.1mc STANDARD and 5.1a BYPASS modes.
LISTENER POS -127 to +127
Compensates for primary listening positions that are not centered
between the front left and right speakers. Each increment within the
-127 to +127 parameter range represents about one-third of an inch.
