Adjusting the Listening Modes—Continued

The effect of the Late Night function depends on the material that you are playing and the intention of the original sound designer, and with some material there will be little or no effect when you select the different options.

The Late Night function is set to Off when the AV receiver is set to Standby.

CinemaFILTER

Cinema Fltr

With the CinemaFILTER, you can soften overly bright movie soundtracks, which are typically mixed for repro- duction in a movie theater.

CinemaFILTER can be used with the following listening modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, DTS, DTS- ES, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS 96/24, and Neo:6.

Off: CinemaFILTER off.

On: CinemaFILTER on.

Note:

The CinemaFILTER may not work when used with certain input sources.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ

DynamicEQ

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

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorat- ing 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.

Off: Audyssey Dynamic EQ off.

On: Audyssey Dynamic EQ on.

Note:

Audyssey Dynamic EQ can be set only when the Equalizer Settings on page 71 are set to Audyssey.

Music Optimizer

M.Optimizer

The Music Optimizer function enhances the sound qual- ity of compressed music files. Use it with music files that use “lossy” compression, such as MP3.

Off: Music Optimizer off (default).

On: Music Optimizer on.

Note:

The Music Optimizer function only works with PCM digital audio input signals with a sampling rate below 48kHz and analog audio input signals. The Music

Optimizer is disabled when the Pure Audio or Direct listening mode is selected.

Speaker Levels

You can adjust the volume of each speaker while listen- ing to an input source.

These temporary adjustments are cancelled when the AV receiver is set to Standby.

Subwoofer (Subwfr)

You can adjust the level from –15 dB to +12 dB.

Center

You can adjust the level from –12 dB to +12 dB.

Notes:

You cannot use this function while the AV receiver is muted.

Speakers that are set to No or None in the Speaker Configuration cannot be adjusted (see page 67).

A/V Sync

A/V Sync

When using progressive scanning on your DVD player, you may find that the picture and sound are out of sync. With this setting, you can correct this by delaying the audio signals. You can set it from 0 to 100 milliseconds (ms) in 20 millisecond steps.

Note:

This setting is not available when the Pure Audio lis- tening mode is used, or the Direct listening mode is used with an analog input signal.
