Quit:[SETUP]

a. Re-EQ (THX)

Re-EQ (re-equalization) takes the edginess or “bright- ness” out of your home cinema sound to compensate for the fact that sound mixed for theaters may sound too bright when played back through speakers in the home environment.

This can be set to either “On” or “Off”.

You can use the Re-EQ button on the remote controller for setting “On” or “Off.”

This setting returns to the default setting (“On”) when the DTR-7.4 enters the standby state.

b. Decoder (2ch)

This setting allows you to select the decoding mode for THX processing.

PLII Movie: Select for Dolby Pro Logic II Movie.

Neo:6 Cinema: Select for DTS Neo:6 Cinema. You can also easily change the Decoder mode settings using the remote controller. While playing the analog or PCM source, each press of the THX button on the remote controller switches the listening modes between “PLII Movie” and “Neo:6 Cinema.”

c. THX Surround EX (Dolby D)

This setting allows you to set whether or not Dolby Dig- ital sources will be played back using THX Surround EX when a surround back speaker is connected.

Auto: Select to automatically output sources with EX-identifying signals using THX Surround EX. On: Select to output using THX Surround EX regardless of whether or not the source contains EX identifiers.

Off: Select not to output using THX Surround EX regardless of whether or not the source contains EX identifiers (Dolby D is used).

You can also easily change the THX Surround EX mode settings using the remote controller. While playing a Dolby Digital source, after pressing the THX button, each press of the THX button on the remote controller cyclically changes the THX Surround EX mode in the order of “Auto,” “On,” and “Off.”

d. DTS-ES

This setting allows you to select the DTS-ES mode for THX processing.

Auto: Select to have the listening mode change auto- matically to DTS-ES Discrete or DTS-ES Matrix when the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag (ID sig-

nal for DTS-ES). If the DTS source has no DTS-ES flag, the mode is changed to DTS 5.1.

On: Select to have the listening mode change auto- matically to DTS-ES Discrete or DTS-ES Matrix when the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag, and to DTS + Neo: 6 when the DTS source has no DTS-ES flag.

Off: Select to not use DTS-ES listening modes even when the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag. With this setting, the DTS sources are always played in DTS 5.1 mode.

You can also easily change the DTS-ES mode settings using the remote controller. While playing a DTS source, after pressing the THX button, each press of the THX button on the remote controller cyclically changes the DTS-ES mode in the order of “Auto,” “On,” and “Off.”

Note:

THX Surround EX (Dolby D) and DTS-ES cannot be selected if the Surr Back/Zone 2 setting in the Surr Back/ Zone 2 Sub-menu of the Hardware Setup Menu is set to “Zone 2” and the Surr Back setting in the Speaker Config Sub-menu of Speaker Setup menu is set to “None.”

Mono Movie/Enhance/Orchestra/Unplugged/ Studio Mix /TV Logic Sub-menu

The settings of these sub-menus become effective when any of the Mono Movie, Enhance, Orchestra, Unplugged, Studio-Mix, or TV Logic listening modes are selected. When one of the listening modes is selected, the settings in the sub-menu of that listening mode become enabled.

Quit:[SETUP]

a. Front Effect

Some live recordings contain acoustic reverberation. When you play these sources, more reverberation will be applied by the DSP, creating too many reverb effects and the sound loses frame or presence. In this case, set this setting to “Off” so that no reverberation from the DSP will be applied to the sound output from the three front channels. With this setting, the sound source is played as it is without any further reverberation.

b. Reverb Level

This setting allows you to adjust the depth of acoustic reverberation to match the playback source material, the acoustics of your room, and other such factors.

Select from the three settings “Low,” “Mid,” and “High.”

c. Reverb Time

Adjust the reverb time to match the source being played back and the acoustics of the room. Select from the three settings “Short,” “Mid,” and “Long.”
