Advanced Setup
—Continued
Center Width 0 to 7 (default: 3)
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 center). This setting controls the front left, right, and center mix,
allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound.
PLIIz Height Gain Low: Low PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.
Mid: Medium PLIIz Height Gain becomes active (default).
High: High PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.
The Height Gain Control in Dolby Pro Logic IIz enables the listener to select how much gain is applied to the
front high speakers. There are three settings, “Low”, “Mid” and “High”, and the front high speakers are accen-
tuated in that order. While “Mid” is the default listening setting, the listener may adjust the Height Gain Control
to their personal preference.
Dolby EX Auto: If the source signal contains a Dolby EX flag, the Dolby EX or THX
Surround EX listening mode is used.
Manual: You can select any available listening mode (default).
This setting determines how Dolby EX encoded signals are handled. This setting is unavailable if no surround
back speaker is connected. This setting is effective with Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD
only.
Note:
If the “Front High” and “Front Wide” settings are set to other than “None” (page 95), this setting is fixed at
“Manual”.
Dolby Volume Off: Dolby Volume off (default).
Low: Low Compression Mode becomes active.
Mid: Medium Compression Mode becomes active.
High: High Compression Mode becomes active. This setting affects volume the
most, causing all sounds to be of equal loudness.
Dolby Volume is an intelligent volume control system that resolves and improves audio frequency response and
volume inconsistencies in playback applications.
Notes:
• When the “Dolby Volume” is set to effective, “Equalizer” setting is set to “Off” or “Manual”, and “Dynamic
EQ” is set to “Off”.
• When the “Dolby Volume” is set to effective, the Late Night function cannot be set.
Half Mode Off: Half Mode off.
On: Half Mode on (default).
The Half Mode parameter turns Dolby Volume Half Mode processing ON and OFF.
In OFF mode, Dolby Volume applies a bass and treble attenuation to the audio when the system gain exceeds
reference level. This enables a more perceptually flat listening experience as human ears are more sensitive to
bass and treble at higher levels. Some listeners however, prefer to have more bass and treble performance at
higher gain levels.
Notes:
• If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.
• During Half Mode ON playback, Dolby Volume does not apply a bass and treble attenuation when the system
volume exceeds reference level thereby boosting perception of high and low frequencies.
DTS
Neo:6 Music
Center Image 0 to 5 (default: 2)
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel surround sound from 2-channel stereo sources. With
this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create
the center channel.
Setting a value “0” in the middle is set to hear a sound. Sound is spread in left and right (the outside) so that the
set value is made big. Please adjust by liking.
