mode, which passes the digital audio to the CVR700’s processor so that low-fre- quency portions of the audio may be steered to the appropriate speakers depending on the capabilities of your specific speakers. If you are using the JBL Cinema Vision speaker system, you may leave the DVD-Audio disc audio mode at the default BASS MANAGEMENTsetting. If you are using other speakers, you should select DIRECT, and make sure to configure your speakers using the SPEAKERS submenu as described on page 48.

The available audio modes for DVD - Video, audio CD, Video CD and com- pressed audio discs are reflected in Figure 16. Note, however, that the options shown each encompass a suite of surround modes. Although a more com- plete explanation of the available sur- round modes may be found on page 62, the DOLBY surround mode submenu serves as a good example (Figure 17). Note that some modes may not be avail- able, depending on how you set your system configuration in the SYSTEM submenu above (Figure 7). For example, the DIGITAL EX, PL IIx MOVIE 7.1 and PL IIx MUSIC 7.1 modes are only available for 7.1-channel systems. In addition, the DIGITAL 5.1 and DIGITAL EX modes are only available when source materials that are encoded in the Dolby Digital 5.1 or Dolby Digital EX format are actually playing.

Although you are encouraged to experi- ment with the various audio surround modes as you become more familiar with your system, at this time it is recommended that you select Logic 7 Cinema (Movie) for DVD-Video and VCD discs, and for video sources such as cable television, and Logic 7 Music for audio CDs, MP3s, WMAs, the AM/FM tuner and other audio-only sources to complete the setup process. Select the 7.1 version if your system is in 7.1-channel operation, or the

5.1version if you are using 5.1-channel operation.

Note that the audio mode setup for DVD-Video discs is slightly different than for the other disc types. With the SOURCES menu (Figure 10) on screen, instead of scrolling to the AUDIO MODE line as for the other disc types, continue scrolling until the

›cursor is next to the DVD-Vline

and select it. The DVD VIDEO sub- menu (Figure 18) will appear. Although audio mode selection is similar to the other disc types, the sub mode (e.g., Music 7.1 for Logic 7) is displayed separately on the TYPE line.

The DVD VIDEO submenu (Fig. 18) also enables you to adjust the Night Mode setting. The Night Mode setting may be accessed directly from the SOURCES menu (Figure 12) for other source inputs. The Night mode is a fea- ture of Dolby Digital that preserves the dynamic range and full intelligibility of a movie soundtrack while reducing the peak level. This prevents abruptly loud transitions from disturbing others, with- out reducing the sonic impact of a digital source. The Night mode is only available when specially encoded Dolby Digital

signals are played, which are only found on DVD-Video (or DVD-Audio) discs. To adjust the Night mode setting, make certain that the ›cursor is on the NIGHT line. Next, press the ‹/› Navigation Controls q 6 to choose between the following settings, as they appear in the Lower Display Line E:

OFF: When OFF is highlighted, the Night mode will not function.

MEDIUM COMPRESSION: A

mild compression will be applied, when MEDIUM COMPRESSION is highlighted.

MAXIMUM COMPRESSION: When MAXIMUM COMPRESSION is highlighted, a more severe compression algorithm will be applied.

We recommend that you select the MEDIUM setting as a starting point and change to the MAXIMUM setting later, if desired. The Night mode may also be adjusted directly any time a Dolby Digital source is playing by pressing the Night Mode Button Z 14 . When the button is pressed, D-RANGEwill appear in the lower third of the video screen and in the Lower Display Line E. Press the ⁄¤ Navigation Controls qwithin 3 seconds to select the desired setting.

No additional adjustments are available for the internal DVD/CD changer, as the SOURCE A.R. line of Figure 10 is automatically set to 16:9 and may not be adjusted.

However, the video input and aspect ratio (video screen) for external sources may be adjusted. Scroll to the VIDEO INPUT line to select a composite video, S-video, or for the CABLE/SAT, DIGITAL RECORDER and GAME/CAMERA sources only, a component video input for each external source. In addition, scroll to the SOURCE A.R. line to specify whether the source uses a 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio, or select auto detection.

The SOURCES menu also

contains a RESET TO FACTORY SETTINGS line that allows you to
