Pioneer AVH-P3100DVD - Manual (Page 84)

Note
When you make adjustments to the listening po-
sition, the speaker outputs are automatically set
for appropriate levels. You can tailor the levels
more precisely referring to Adjusting the speaker
output levels using a test tone or Adjusting the
speaker output levels.
Using balance adjustment
You can change the fader/balance setting so
that it can provide the ideal listening environ-
ment in all occupied seats.
1 Touch Fader/Balance on the DSP func-
tion menu.
2 Touch a or b to adjust front/rear
speaker balance.
Each time you touch a or b it moves the
front/rear speaker balance towards the front or
the rear.
Front:25 to Rear:25 is displayed as the front/
rear speaker balance moves from front to rear.
# FR: 0/LR: 0 is the proper setting when only
two speakers are used.
3 Touch c or d to adjust left/right speak-
er balance.
Each time you touch c or d it moves the left/
right speaker balance towards the left or the
right.
Left:25 to Right:25 is displayed as the left/
right speaker balance moves from left to right.
Using the sound field control
The SFC function creates the sensation of a
live performance.
! The acoustics of different performance en-
vironments are not the same and depend
on the extent and contour of space through
which sound waves move and on how
sounds bounce off the stage, walls, floors
and ceilings. At a live performance you
hear music in three stages: direct sound,
early reflections, and late reflections, or re-
verberations. Those factors are programed
into the SFC circuitry to recreate the acous-
tics of various performance settings.
% Touch SFC on the DSP function menu to
select the setting.
Touch
SFC until the desired setting appears in
the display.

Note
If the source is a 2-channel LPCM audio or a 2-
channel Dolby Digital audio and you select SFC
effects that are most applicable for 5.1-channel
audio (i.e.,
Musical, Drama or Action), we re-
commend turning Dolby Pro Logic II on. On the
other hand, when selecting SFC effects that are
intended for use with 2-channel audio (i.e.,
Jazz,
Hall or Club), we recommend turning Dolby Pro
Logic II off.
Adjusting source levels
SLA (source level adjustment) lets you adjust
the volume level of each source to prevent ra-
dical changes in volume when switching be-
tween sources.
! Settings are based on the FM volume level,
which remains unchanged.
1 Compare the FM volume level with the
level of the source you wish to adjust.
