settings
These settings apply to only 2-channel (stereo) sources.
With the Late Night function, you can reduce the
dynamic range
of
Dolby Digital material so that you can
still hear quiet parts even when listening at low volume
levels-ideal
for watching movies late at night when you
don't want to disturb anyone.
With the CinemaFILTER, you can soften overly bright
movie soundtracks, which are typically mixed for repro-
duction in a movie theater.
CinemaFILTER can be used with the following listening
modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby PLII Movie, DTS, and
DTS Neo:6 Cinema.
Press the [RECEIVER] button,
andthen press the [L NIGHT] but-
ton repeatedly to select:
OtT:
Late Night function off.
Low: Small reduction in dynamic
range.
High: Big reduction in dynamic
range.
Press the [RECEIVER] button,
and then press the [CINE FLTR]
button repeatedly
to
select:
On:
CinemaFILTER on.
OtT:
CinemaFILTER off.
Notes:
• The effect
of
the Late Night function depends on the
Dolby Digital material that you are playing, and with
some material there will be little
or
no effect.
• The Late Night function is set to
Off
when the
AV
receiver is set to Standby.
• Panorama
With this function, you can broaden the width
of
the
front stereo image when using the Pro Logic II Music
listening mode.
On:
.Panorama function on.
OtT: Panorama function
off
(default).
• Dimension
With this setting, you can move the sound field forward
or
backward when using the Pro Logic II Music listening
mode. The default setting is
3.
It can be adjusted from 0
to 6. Higher settings move the sound field forward.
Lower settings move it backward.
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
This setting has an effect when you use a center speaker.
With this function, you can adjust the width
of
the sound
from the center speaker when using the Pro Logic II
Music listening mode normally.
If
you're using a center
speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the
center speaker. (Ifyou'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 set-
ting controls the front left, right, and center mix, allow-
ing you to adjust the weight
of
the center channel sound.
It
can
be
adjusted from 0 to 7 (default is 3).
• Center Image
This setting has an effect when you use a center speaker.
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 5-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 centerchannel. Itcan beadjusted from 0 to 5 (default
is 2). This setting is unavailable
if
no surround speakers
are connected.
When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is
attenuated by half
(-6
dB), giving the impression that the
sound is located centrally. This setting works well when
the listening position is considerably off center. When
set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenu-
ated, maintaining the original stereo'balance.
