Listening Mode Setup —Continued
PLIIx Game: Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game
mode.
NEO:6 Cinema: Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the DTS NEO:6NEO:6 Cinema
mode.
NEO:6 Music: Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the DTS NEO:6 Music mode.
b. PLIIx Music Panorama
This option allows you to configure the panorama effect
during the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode. This effect
will expand the sound space horizontally.
On: The panorama effect is turned on.
Off (Default): The panorama effect is turned off.
c. PLIIx Music Dimension
This option allows you to change the entire sound space
location either forward or backward during the Dolby
Pro Logic IIx Music mode. The option defaults to “3.”
The value “3” locates the sound space to the center
position. If you select values between “2” and “0,” the
sound space moves forward. If you select values
between “4” and “6,” the sound space moves backward.
Tips:
When you feel the sound space is too expanded or that
there is too much surround effect, move the sound space
forward to obtain a better balance. When you feel the
sound space is just like a mono source or is too narrow,
move the sound space backward to obtain a better balance.
d. PLIIx Music Center Width
This option allows you to adjust the sound image width
which the center speaker covers during the Dolby Pro
Logic IIx Music mode. When you play the source in the
Dolby Pro Logic II mode and the center speaker is
connected to the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E, the center
channel signal is output only from the center speaker (if
the center speaker is not connected, the center channel
signal will be equally divided into the left and right front
speakers to create a virtual center sound image). In this
option, adjust the output balance between the center and
front left/right speakers to determine the scale for the
central sound image. The available settings for this
option are between “0” and “7.” The default value is “3.”
e. NEO:6 Music Center Image
This setting can be made when the (Speaker A) Surr
Back setting is set to “Main A” in the Speaker
Configuration sub-menu.
The DTS NEO:6 Music mode is a listening mode in
which an original 2ch source is played as a 6ch source.
In this mode, the signal for center channel will be
created from the signals deducted to some extent from
the left and right front channels. This option allows you
to configure how much the signals are deducted from
the left and right channels to produce the center channel
image. The available settings for this option are
between “0” and “5.” The default value is “2.”
f. Re-EQ
This option allows you to configure whether the Re-EQ
effect is applied or not. Use this effect when you do not
want to overemphasize the treble sound.
Off (Default): The effect is not applied.
On: Adjusts the soundtrack in which the treble is
overemphasized, so that the sound is optimized for
home theater.
g. Front Speaker
This option configures the front speakers to use when
playing the source in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS
NEO:6 listening modes. Select the speaker terminals to
which the speakers you want to use are connected. This
setting can be made when the “(Speaker B) Front L/R”
is set to “Main A” in the Speaker Configuration sub-
menu.
• When the impedance setting for “Front L/R A” or
“Front L/R B” in the Speaker Impedance sub-menu is
set to “6 ohms” or “4 ohms,” the available options will
be “A” and “B.”
A (Default): Outputs the source from the speakers
connected to the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS A terminals.
B: Outputs the source from the speakers connected to
the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS B terminals.
A+B: Outputs the source from the speakers connected
to the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS A and FRONT L/R
SPEAKERS B terminals. Note that this option is not
available when the front speakers are in Bi-amp or in
BTL configuration.
h. Center Speaker
This option configures the center speaker to use when
playing the source in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS
NEO:6 listening modes. Select the speaker terminal to
which the speaker you want to use is connected. This
setting can be made when the “(Speaker B) Center” is
set to “Main A” in the Speaker Configuration sub-menu.
• When the impedance setting for “Center A” or
“Center B” in the Speaker Impedance sub-menu is set
to “6 ohms” or “4 ohms,” the available options will be
“A” and “B.”
A (Default): Outputs the source from the speaker
connected to the CENTER SPEAKERS A terminal.
B: Outputs the source from the speaker connected to the
CENTER SPEAKERS B terminal.
A+B: Outputs the source from the speakers connected
to the CENTER SPEAKERS A and CENTER
SPEAKERS B terminals.
