Adjusting the Listening Modes

With the Audio Adjust functions and settings, you can
adjust the sound and listening modes as you like.

The Audio Adjust settings are explained below.

Multiplex/Mono Settings

Multiplex

Input (Mux)

This setting determines which channel of a stereo multi-
plex source is output. Use it to select audio channels or
languages with multiplex sources, multilingual TV
broadcasts, and so on.

Main:

The main channel is output (default).

Sub:

The sub channel is output.

M/S:

Both the main and sub channels are out-
put.

Mono

Input (Mono)

This setting determines which channel is output when
the Mono listening mode is used with a stereo source.

L+R:

Both the left and right channels are output
(default).

L:

Only the left channel is output.

R:

Only the right channel is output.

PLIIx/Neo:6 Settings

PLIIx Music (2 ch Input)

These settings apply to only 2-channel stereo sources.

If you’re not using any surround back speakers, these
settings apply to Dolby Pro Logic II, not Dolby Pro
Logic IIx.

Panorama

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front
stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music
listening mode.

On:

Panorama function on.

Off:

Panorama function off (default).

Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward
or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music
listening mode. It can be adjusted from –3 to +3. The
default value is 0. 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

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 output by
only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center
speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to
the front left and right speakers to create a phantom cen-
ter). This setting controls the front left, right, and center
mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center
channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7. The default
value is 3.
