Mono In

With this function you can specify how 2-channel sources are handled in the Mono listening mode. L+R: The front left and right speakers output a mono mix of the left and right channels (default).

L:The front left and right speakers output the sound recorded in the left channel. Use this option with mate- rial that has different languages recorded in the left and right channels.

R:The front left and right speakers output the sound recorded in the right channel. Use this option with mate- rial that has different languages recorded in the left and right channels.

D. Bass (Double Bass)

The Double Bass function boosts the bass by feeding bass sounds from the front left and right channels to the subwoofer. To use this function, in the Speaker Configu- ration, the Subwoofer setting must be set to Yes, and the Front setting must be set to Lrg (see page 48).

On: Double Bass function on.

Off: Double Bass function off.

L. Night (Late Night) (Dolby Digital only)

This is the same as the Late Night function on page 44. It can be used only with Dolby Digital listening mode.

Cine Flt (Cinema Filter)

This is the same as the CinemaFILTER function on page 44. It can be used with the following listening modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS 96/24, DTS+Neo:6, and DTS+Dolby EX.

DTS Neo:6 Music Mode & Audio Adjust

This audio adjust function can be used with the DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode.

C Image (Center Image)

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel surround sound from 2-channel (stereo) material. With this function you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5 (default 3)

When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the sound is located centrally. This setting works well when the listening position is considerably off center. When set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenu- ated, maintaining the original stereo sound balance.
