PLIIz Height Gain

The Height Gain Control in Dolby Pro Logic IIz enables the listener to select how much gain is applied to the front high speakers. There are three settings, “Low”, “Mid” and “High”, and the front high speakers are accentuated in that order. While “Mid” is the default listening setting, the listener may adjust the Height Gain Control to their personal preference.

`Low:

Low PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.

`Mid:

Medium PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.

`High:

High PLIIz Height Gain becomes active.

Note

If the “Front High” settings is set to “None” (48), this setting cannot be selected.

Dolby EX

This setting determines how Dolby EX encoded signals are handled. This setting is unavailable if no surround back speakers are connected. This setting is effective with Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD only.

`Auto:

If the source signal contains a Dolby EX flag, the Dolby EX or THX Surround EX listening mode is used.

`Manual:

You can select any available listening mode.

Note

If the “Surround Back” setting is set to “None” (48), this setting cannot be selected.

If the “Front High” or “Front Wide” setting is enabled (48), this setting is fixed at “Manual”.

Dolby Volume

`Off:

Dolby Volume off.

`On:

Dolby Volume on.

The -(Dolby) Vol indicator will light (9).

Dolby Volume automatically adjusts the difference in vol- ume levels which can occur between different content or source components, freeing the user from having to make volume adjustments. Also, by adjusting the frequency bal- ance according to the playback volume, it recreates the original source audio. Dolby Volume therefore provides comfortable listening, effectively controlling the volume level difference without unnatural changes in volume or sound quality to recreate the balance and nuance of the source audio.

Note

When the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to effective, Audyssey Dynamic EQ® and Audyssey Dynamic Volume® will be set to “Off” and “Equalizer” setting will be set to “Off” from “Audyssey” or remain set to “Manual”.

If you would like to use Dolby Volume in THX listening modes, set “Loudness Plus” setting to “Off” and set “Preserve THX Settings” setting to “No”.

When the “Dolby Volume” is set to “On”, the Late Night func- tion cannot be set.

Volume Leveler

`Off:

Volume Leveler off.

`Low:

Low Compression Mode becomes active.

`Mid:

Medium Compression Mode becomes active.

`High:

High Compression Mode becomes active. This set- ting affects volume the most, causing all sounds to be of equal loudness.

Volume Leveler” maintains the perceived loudness of all content for example, from different channels or input sources.

Note

If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.

Half Mode

`Off:

Half Mode off.

`On:

Half Mode on.

The Half Mode parameter turns Dolby Volume Half Mode processing ON and OFF.

In OFF mode, Dolby Volume applies a bass and treble attenuation to the audio when the system gain exceeds ref- erence level. This enables a more perceptually flat listen- ing experience as human ears are more sensitive to bass and treble at higher levels. Some listeners however, prefer to have more bass and treble performance at higher gain levels.

Note

If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.

During Half Mode ON playback, Dolby Volume does not apply a bass and treble attenuation when the system volume exceeds reference level thereby boosting perception of high and low fre- quencies.

`0 to 2 to 5

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel surround sound from 2-channel stereo sources. With this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel.

Setting a value “0” in the middle is set to hear a sound. Sound is spread in left and right (the outside) so that the set value is made big. Please adjust by liking.
