Settings (Channel Level)

Adjusting channel levels

Press the SELECT button (5 or b) to select the desired channel, then press the SELECT button (g or t) to adjust the selected channel. Repeat these steps to adjust each channel level.

<The LFE (Low Frequency Effects) level can be adjusted within the range of –10 to 0 dB and other channel levels within the range of –15 to +15 dB.

<In general, we recommend the LFE level to be adjusted to 0 dB. (However, the recommended LFE level for some early DTS software is –10 dB.) If the recommended levels seem too high, lower setting as necessary.

<These adjusted levels are memorized into user’s memory (“CAL”), not into the preset memory (“REF 1”, “REF 2”).

Memorizing channel levels

You can memorize the adjusted channel levels into preset memory (“REF 1”, “REF 2”) and recall the memorized levels whenever you want. After performing the steps in “Adjusting channel levels”, press the ENTER button. Press the SELECT button (g or t) to select the desired preset memory.

Recalling memorized channel levels

Press the SELECT button (5 or b) to select “MODE”, then press the SELECT button (g or t) to select “REF 1” or “REF 2”. The channel levels memorized into the selected preset memory are recalled.

Settings (Parameters)

NIGHT Mode

Press the SELECT button (5 or b) to select “NIGHT M”, then press the ENTER button. Adjust the dynamic range compression between 0.0 and 1.0.

This function compresses the dynamic range of previously specified parts of Dolby Digital or DTS sound track (with extremely high volume) to minimize the difference in volume between the specified and non-specified parts.

This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track when watching movies at night at low levels.

<The night mode setting is valid only when the digital signals from Dolby Digital or DTS program sources are being input.

<The night mode setting may not be valid in some Dolby Digital or DTS program sources.

<Refer to “Dynamic Range Compression” on page 22.

PLII MUSIC (DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MUSIC) Mode

You can adjust the various surround parameters for optimum surround effect.

<The parameter settings are valid only when listening in DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MUSIC mode.

<For details, refer to “DOLBY PRO LOGIC II parameters” on page 23.
