Adjusting the Center Width (Center Width)

When you select “Music” for “Dolby Pro Logic II,” you can further adjust the center width in the following steps. This function offers the optimum vocal position by adjusting the center channel position between the center speaker and the L/R speaker. (The adjustments established in “Adjusting the Acoustic Image (BI-PHANTOM)” (page 33) are ineffective while this function is activated.) (Initial setting: “OFF”, “Level 0”)

1 Click [ON] for “Dolby Pro Logic II” - “Center Width.” 2 Click [ ] and select and click a level.

Level settings: Level 0 to Level 7

When the level becomes higher, the center channel localization shifts from the center speaker toward both sides.

When the Center speaker is off in “Setting the Speaker System (Output System Select)” (page 13)/ “Setting the Speakers (Speaker Setup)/Setting the Subwoofers” (page 14), this item cannot be set.
