Adjusting the Listening Modes—Continued

Dolby Digital Settings

Dolby EX

This setting determines how Dolby EX signals are han- dled. If you’re not using any surround back speakers, or Powered Zone 2 is being used (page 101), this setting is unavailable.

Auto: When the source is Dolby EX, you can select the Dolby EX or THX Surround EX listening mode.

Listening Mode Presets

On the Listening Mode Preset menu, you can specify a default listening mode for each of the audio formats sup- ported by each input selector. The AV receiver will then select the listening mode automatically depending on the format of the input signal. You can still select the other listening modes, although the default listening mode will be used the next time you turn on the AV receiver.

Manual: When the source is Dolby EX, you can select any of the listening modes compatible with this format (e.g., Dolby EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, etc.).

T–D (Theater-Dimensional) Setting

Listening Angle

With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-Dimen- sional listening mode by specifying the angle of the front left and right speakers relative to the listening position. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be equi- distant from the listening position and at an angle close to one of the two available settings.
