Adjusting Surround Effects

Narrowing the audio width of the front right-left channels (Image width)

As a characteristic of the digital sound projector, when the room’s right and left walls are far apart, some playback sources may sound overly separated.

This function allows you to adjust the width of the sound image to a narrow perspective, thus producing a more natural sound image.

1Use the touch panel to select the PDSP menu.

From the HOME menu press ; from other menus, press .

2Press the MENU button.

The “System Setup” menu screen appears.

3Using the buttons, select “Stereo Mode”, then press the ENTER button. The following screen appears:

Stereo Mode Menu

1	Image width	On
2	Image width value 1.00
3	PLII Mode	PLII Movie

4Using the buttons, select “Image width”, then use the buttons to select “On”.

5Using the buttons, select “Image width value”, then use the buttons to adjust the value as desired; when done, press the ENTER button.

Setting range: 0.00 – 1.00 (1.00 when setting is OFF)

Notes:

Setting value 1.00 is for stereo sound (sound width spread to front right-left).

Setting value 0.00 is monaural (sound spread is narrowed and produced only from the center channel).
