When Dolby Pro Logic II or DTS Neo:6 is selected as the default surround mode on the INPUT SETUP menu (see previous section), there are additional option settings and parameters available to optimize the surround decoding for various types of recordings, music or movie soundtracks.

These settings are changed using one of the DOLBY PRO LOGIC II or DTS Neo:6 sub-menus, reached by pressing the ENTER key from the INPUT SETUP menu when either of these sur- round modes is selected.

The sub-menu will be similar to the example shown above, with the title at the top of the screen indicating either DOLBY PRO LOGIC

IIor DTS Neo:6 depending on the surround mode.

In DTS Neo:6 surround mode, there will only be one choice available on the sub-menu: selecting CINEMA or MUSIC modes. Use the +/– keys on the remote to change the settings.

•Select CINEMA to optimize the DTS Neo:6 decoding for movie soundtracks.

•Select MUSIC to optimize the DTS Neo:6 decoding for musical recordings.

In Dolby Pro Logic II surround mode,

there will a similar choice available on the sub- menu except that there are three options: CINEMA, MUSIC, or EMULATION modes. Use the +/– keys on the remote to select a mode.

•Select CINEMA to optimize for Dolby Surround encoded movie soundtracks, using the enhanced matrix decoding of Dolby Pro Logic II including increased surround separation and full-bandwidth surround channel frequency response.

•Select EMULATION decoding logic that emulates the original Dolby Pro Logic sys- tem. You may prefer this option for older movie soundtracks that are not of optimum audio quality. EMULATION mode reduces the high-frequency response and separa- tion of the surround channels and may in- crease the delay setting to the surround channels for a more spacious effect.

•Select MUSIC to optimize for musical re- cordings. When the MUSIC mode is se- lected, three additional parameter will be available as shown in the following screen:

Use the UP/DOWN keys on the remote to select a parameter. Use the +/– keys to change the selected parameter as follows:

•PANORAMA: The Panorama option extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for a dramatic “wrap- around” effect. The options are OFF or ON.

•DIMENSION: The Dimension option al- lows you to gradually adjust the soundfield towards the front or towards the rear. There

are seven incremental settings from 0 to

6. A setting of 0 shifts the soundfield to- wards the rear for maximum surround ef- fect. A setting of 6 shifts the soundfield to the front for minimum surround effect. The default setting of 3 provides a “neutral” balance between the two extremes.

•CENTER WIDTH: The Center Width option allows you to spread the signal intended for the center speaker to the left and right front speakers, widening the perceived soundfield. There are eight incremental settings from 0 to 7. With the default setting of 0, there is no center width spreading and all of the center channel information is sent to the center speaker. The maximum setting of 7 shifts all of the center channel signal to the left and right speakers, essentially muting the center speaker and maximizing the soundfield width. Other settings provide incremental steps be- tween the two extremes.

When you have completed all the desired adjustments, press the ENTER key to return to the INPUT SETUP menu.

The SPEAKER SETUP menu is used to config- ure the RSX-1055 for use with your specific loudspeakers. The menu is accessed from the MAIN menu.

Home theater systems vary in the number of speakers and the bass capabilities of those speakers. The RSX-1055 offers surround modes tailored to systems with various numbers of speakers and bass management features which send bass information to the speaker(s) best able to handle it – subwoofers and/or large speakers. For optimum performance, you must tell the RSX-1055 the number of speakers in your system and how bass should be distrib- uted among them.
