2 Surround parameters e
CINEMA EQ. (Cinema Equalizer):
The Cinema EQ function gently decreases the level of the
extreme high frequencies, compensating for overly-bright
sounding motion picture soundtracks. Select this function if the
sound from the front speakers is too bright.
This function only works in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx, Dolby
Digital, DTS Surround and DTS NEO:6 modes. (The same
contents are set for all operating modes.)
D.COMP. (Dynamic Range Compression):
Motion picture soundtracks have tremendous dynamic range
(the contrast between very soft and very loud sounds). For
listening late at night, or whenever the maximum sound level is
lower than usual, the Dynamic Range Compression allows you
to hear all of the sounds in the soundtrack (but with reduced
dynamic range). (This only works when playing program
sources recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS). Select one of the
four parameters (OFF, LOW, MID (middle) or HIGH).
Set to OFF for normal listening.
SB CH OUT (Surround Back):
(1) Multi-channel source
OFF:
Playback is conducted without using the surround back
speaker.
NON MTRX:
The same signals as those of the surround channels are
output from the surround back channels.
MTRX ON:
The surround back channel is reproduced using digital matrix
processing.
ES MTRX:
When playing DTS signals, the surround back signals undergo
digital matrix processing for playback.
ES DSCRT:
When a signal identifying the source as a discrete 6.1-channel
source is included in the DTS signals, the surround back
signals included in the source are played.
PLIIx Cinema:
Processing is performed with the Cinema mode of the PLIIx
decoder and the surround back channel is reproduced.
PLIIx Music:
Processing is performed with the Music mode of the PLIIx
decoder and the surround back channel is reproduced.
(2) 2ch source
OFF:
Playback is conducted without using the surround back speaker.
ON:
Playback is conducted using the surround back speaker.
TONE:
This enables tone control. This can be set individually for the
separate surround modes other than DIRECT mode.
LFE (Low Frequency Effect):
This sets the level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effect) sounds
included in the source when playing program sources recorded
in Dolby Digital or DTS.
If the sound produced from the subwoofer sounds distorted
due to the LFE signals when playing Dolby Digital or DTS
sources when the peak limiter is turned off with the subwoofer
peak limit level setting, adjust the level as necessary.
Program source and adjustment range:
1. Dolby Digital: 10 dB to 0 dB
2. DTS Surround: 10 dB to 0 dB
When DTS encoded movie
software is played, it is
recommended that the LFE LEVEL be set to 0 dB for
correct DTS playback.
When DTS encoded music
software is played, it is
recommended that the LFE LEVEL be set to 10 dB for
correct DTS playback.
2 Dialogue normalization
The dialog normalization function is activated automatically when
playing Dolby Digital program sources.
Dialog normalization is a basic function of Dolby Digital which
automatically normalizes the dialog level (standard level) of the
signals which are recorded at different levels for different
program sources, such as DVD, DTV and other future formats
that will use Dolby Digital.
These contents can be verified with the STATUS button.
OFFSET - 4dB
The number indicates the normalization level when the
currently playing program is normalized to the standard
level.
