Panorama WIDE is designed for recordings with centered bass (almost all pop and rock). The only other difference between these two programs is their initial EFFECT LEVEL. If you need more bass from Panorama NORMAL, switch to WIDE and reduce the EFFECT LEVEL. Conversely, if Panorama WIDE is too bass- heavy, switch to NORMAL and increase the EFFECT LEVEL.
Note The location of the front speakers and the listening position are crucial to Panorama’s effectiveness and for best results your system and the
