Audio setup page

1.EQ Type (None/Rock/Pop/Live/Dance/Techno/Classic/Soft): This sets a corresponding equalization pattern type to the current music track. Note: These EQ options are not available for SACD, DTS or DVD- Audio tracks.

2.Sound Field (Off/Concert/Living/Room/Hall/Bathroom/Cave/Arena/Church):

These allow users to engage fun sound field effects that will alter the original audio presentation as it was intended. Note: These EQ options are not available for SACD, DTS or DVD-Audio tracks.

3.SPDIF Output: This set the bit stream type of the digital audio output for use with Dolby Digital and DTS-compatible receivers. The options are:

•Raw – Passes the encoded multi-channel digital audio unaltered. Choose this setting if your receiver/amplifier is capable of decoding Dolby Digital and/or DTS.

•PCM – Forces down-mixed 2-channel digital audio output. Choose this setting if your receiver/amplifier only supports stereo digital (PCM) audio.

4.LPCM Rate: To set the maximum Linear PCM output frequency. The options are:

•48K – Supported by most equipment.

•96K – Allows a higher sampling rate and frequency response. Ensure that the receiver/amplifier can support it.

•192K – Allows the highest sampling rate and frequency response. Ensure that the receiver/amplifier can support it and that your dogs are safely away from the listening area.

Note: The LPCM rate is selectable only when HDMI Audio is turned off.

5.Audio Tone (+/-16):This function raises or lowers the tone (key/pitch) of the audio track. This is useful for playing Karaoke discs and should not be used for regular music listening or movies.

•Press the SELECT button to show the tone control window.

•Press the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons to lower or raise the tone/pitch.

•Press the SELECT button to confirm the setting.

6.Pro Logic II: Taking a step further than most DVD players, the OPPO DVD player allows you to configure Dolby Pro Logic II to expand 2- channel source audio into full 5-channel surround sound. Note: Pro Logic II functionality is effective only when Speaker Setup Page > Down-mixis set to “5.1ch” and SPDIF Output is set to “Raw”.

•Press the SELECT button to enter the Pro Logic II Config page.

•Press the LEFT ARROW button to exit the Pro Logic II Config page.

A. Pro Logic II: To turn on or off the Pro Logic II processing. The options are:

•On – Pro Logic II processing is always on

•Off –Pro Logic II processing is disabled

•Auto – Pro Logic II processing is on only when Dolby Pro Logic II encoded content is detected.

B. Mode: To set the processing mode of Pro Logic II. The options are:

•Music – The surround experience is tailored for multi-channel music playback

•Movie – Emphasis is given to the center channel as two-channel audio is decoded and played back into your 5.1 system

•Pro Logic – This activates decoding and processing of the original Dolby Pro Logic processing with mono-surround channel. We recommend using the Dolby Pro Logic Movie mode in lie of this 4- channel surround format.

•Auto – Automatically selects processing mode based on the input format

C. Panorama (Music mode only): Turns on/off panorama mode. When turned on, the front stereo audio is partially fed into the surround channels for an enveloping effect.

D. Dimension (Music mode only): Allows gradual adjustment of the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear. This is useful in setting a more even balance from all speakers with some rooms.

E. Center Width (Music mode only): To control the width of the center channel sound effect by blending the center speaker to the left and right speakers. As the level number increases, the center channel sound moves toward the left and right speakers.
