Treble

You can boost or cut high-frequency sounds output by the front speakers from –10 dB to +10 dB in 1 dB steps.

Setting the Bass and Treble on the AV Receiver:

Note:

The AV receiver’s TONE buttons cannot be used in the Direct and Pure Audio listening modes.

PL IIx and Neo:6 Settings

PL IIx Music (2 ch only)

These settings only apply to 2-channel (stereo) sources.

Panorama

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx 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 Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. The default value is 3. Higher settings move the sound field forward. Lower set- tings move it backward. It can be adjusted from 0 to 6.

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

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Pro Logic II Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distrib- uted to the front left and right speakers to create a phan- tom center). This setting adjusts the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the cen- ter channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7 (default value is 3).

Neo:6 Music

Center Image

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. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5 (default value is 3). 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.
