Advanced Setup—Continued

3-3. 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.

3-4. Audyssey

After room correction and speaker setup is completed, Audyssey Dynamic EQ™ becomes “On” by default.

Dynamic EQ

Off:

Audyssey Dynamic EQ off.

 

On:

Audyssey Dynamic EQ on (default).

With Audyssey Dynamic EQ, you can enjoy great sound even when listening at low volume levels.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level--not just at reference level.

Notes:

•Audyssey Dynamic EQ allows you to maintain the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level in accordance with the speakers.

•In order to record with appropriate sound, Audyssey 2EQ™ is automatically deactivated during a recording. After the recording is finished, Audyssey 2EQ and Audyssey Dynamic EQ will resume as previously set.

•“Dynamic EQ” and “Dyn Vol” become available (see page 72).

Dyn Vol (Dynamic Volume)

Off: Audyssey Dynamic Volume™ off.

Light: Light Compression Mode becomes active (see page 37).

Medium: Medium Compression Mode becomes active (see page 37).

Heavy: Heavy Compression Mode becomes active. This setting affects volume the most, causing all sounds to be of equal loudness.

Notes:

•Other than “Off”, “DynamicEQ” becomes “On”, and “2-5. Equalizer” (see page 70) setting becomes “Audyssey”.

•“Dynamic Volume” becomes active when Dynamic EQ is set to “On”. Therefore, it is “Off” forcibly if “Dynamic EQ” becomes “Off”.

3-5. T-D (Theater-Dimensional)

LstnAngl (Listening Angle)

Wide: Select if the listening angle is 40 degrees (default).

Narrow: Select if the listening angle is 20 degrees.

With this setting, you can optimize the Theater- Dimensional listening mode by specifying the angle of the front left and right speakers relative to the listening position. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be equidistant from the listening position and at an angle close to one of the two available settings.
