Multiplex/Mono Settings

Multiplex

Input (Mux)

This setting determines which channel of a stereo multi- plex source is output. Use it to select audio channels or languages with multiplex sources, multilingual TV broadcasts, and so on.

Main: The main channel is output (default). Sub: The sub channel is output.

M/S: Both the main and sub channels are out- put.

Mono

Input (Mono)

This setting determines which channel is output when the Mono listening mode is used with a stereo source.

L+R: Both the left and right channels are output (default).

L:Only the left channel is output.

R:Only the right channel is output.

PLII/Neo:6 Settings

PLII Music (2 ch Input)

These settings apply to only 2-channel stereo sources.

These settings apply to Dolby Pro Logic II.

Panorama

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode.

On: Panorama function on.

Off: Panorama function off (default).

Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode. It can be adjusted from –3 to +3. The default value is 0. Higher settings move the sound field backward. Lower settings move it forward.

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.
