JBL Home Theater System, SDP-5, 201 Panorama, Pre-Delay, Re-Equalizer, Rear DLY Offset, Reset Mode

SDP-5

MODE ADJUST

PANORAMA ON, OFF

When set to ON, extends the front stereo image to include surround channel signals, which creates a “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.

Note:

The DOLBY PLII MUSIC listening mode PANORAMA parameter should not be confused with the separate PANORAMA listening mode (5-11).

PRE-DELAY OFF, 1 to 100ms

Adjusts delay time between the direct sound and the onset of reverberation. Higher settings make the simulated space sound larger. Because some pre-delay is inherent in all source material, it is recommended to begin with the parameter set to OFF, then make adjustments accordingly.

RE-EQUALIZER ON, OFF

Simulates high-frequency rolloffs that occur in movie theaters. When set to ON, the SDP-5 applies a high-frequency filter. When set to OFF, the SDP-5 does not apply a high-frequency filter. It is recommended to set this parameter to ON for film sources, as many films are mixed for movie theaters and might sound too bright when played back in home theaters without re-equalization.

REAR DLY OFFSET OFF, 1 to 30ms

Increases the perceived depth of the listening space by delaying the arrival time of rear speaker signals. It is recommended to increase the setting when using side and rear speakers that are located close together or when a greater sense of depth is desired in the listening space.

REAR L/R				OFF, -30 to +12dB
MODE ADJUST	(Listening Mode)	OUTPUT LEVELS	REAR L/R

Controls the output level of the Main Zone audio output connector labeled Rear L/R.
