When setting is complete, click [Close Window].

•After the setting, it is recommended to store the setting contents on

the unit. For details, refer to “Storing the Preset Values (Preset

Store)” (page12).

The test tones guide you through the volume adjustments of the

different speakers. When levels are balanced, a strong sense of presence

can be heard from the different speakers at the listening position. (Initial

setting: “±0dB”)

Click [Start] for “Test Tone Output.”

Output Level screen will be displayed and the test tone is

produced from the left front speaker.

Select a channel and click.

Setting channel:Left/Center/Right/Right Surround/Left

Surround

•Channels to be set vary depending on the system set in “Setting the

Speaker System (Output System Select)” (page 13).

Adjust the speaker volumes for each channel to

make them equal while the test tone is output from

each channel. Drag [ ] or click [ ] or [ ] to make

adjustments.

Level: -10 to +10 dB (in 1 dB steps)

Adjust based on the front speakers.

To install a center speaker, it must be located in the dash, an equal

distance between the Left and Right speakers. In most cases, this is very

difficult to achieve. Using Bi-PHANTOM, a virtual center speaker is

created by sending the center channel information to both the Left and

Right speakers. Adjusting the center width in Dolby Pro Logic II

“Music” (see “Using Dolby Pro Logic II (Dolby Pro Logic II)” on

page31), makes this function ineffective. (Initial setting: “OFF”,

“±0dB”)

Click [ON] for “BI-PHANTOM.”

Turning this feature on creates the acoustic image in which

the center speaker is virtually located exactly in front of the

listener by sending the sound of the center speaker to both

sides.

Click [ ] for “Level” and select and click the level

you want from the pull-down menu.

Level: -5 to +5 dB (in 1 dB step)

The level can be adjusted between -5 and +5. When the

level becomes greater, the acoustic image moves from the

center speaker location towards both sides.

•Avoid stopping, pausing, switching the disc, cueing, fast-forwarding

or switching the audio channel of this unit while making this

adjustment. The setting is cancelled if the decode mode is switched.

•When the Center speaker is off in “Setting the Speaker System

(Output System Select)” (page13)/ “Setti ng the Speakers (Speaker

Setup)/Setting the Subwoofers” (page 14), this item cannot be set.

•Effective only for Dolby Pro Logic II, EUPHONY and DTS (with

Center signal).

This function mixes the front channel audio signals with the audio

signals output from the rear speakers, improving the sound in the

vehicle’s rear seat. This is used in a system where there is no subwoofer

and the rear speakers can produce lower frequency sounds than the front

speakers. (Initial setting: “OFF”, “±0dB”)

Click [ON] for “ Rear Mix.”

Turning this feature on mixes the audio signals output from

the rear speakers with the front audio signals.

Click [ ] for “Level” and select and click the level

you want from the pull-down menu.

Level: -6/-3/0/+3/+6 dB

The level can be adjusted in 5 steps. The higher the level,

the more the low range audio is output from the rear

speakers. (Depending on the software such as DVD, the

effect may vary.)
