Listening Mode Setup—Continued

PLIIx Game: Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher channel source using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game mode.

NEO:6 Cinema: Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher channel source using the DTS NEO:6NEO:6 Cinema mode.

NEO:6 Music: Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher channel source using the DTS NEO:6 Music mode.

b. PLIIx Music Panorama

This option allows you to conﬁgure the panorama effect during the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode. This effect will expand the sound space horizontally.

On: The panorama effect is turned on.

Off (Default): The panorama effect is turned off.

c. PLIIx Music Dimension

This option allows you to change the entire sound space location either forward or backward during the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode. The option defaults to “3.” The value “3” locates the sound space to the center position. If you select values between “2” and “0,” the sound space moves forward. If you select values between “4” and “6,” the sound space moves backward.

Tips:

When you feel the sound space is too expanded or that there is too much surround effect, move the sound space forward to obtain a better balance. When you feel the sound space is just like a mono source or is too narrow, move the sound space backward to obtain a better balance.

d. PLIIx Music Center Width

This option allows you to adjust the sound image width which the center speaker covers during the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode. When you play the source in the Dolby Pro Logic II mode and the center speaker is connected to the TX-NR1000/TX-NR5000E, the center channel signal is output only from the center speaker (if the center speaker is not connected, the center channel signal will be equally divided into the left and right front speakers to create a virtual center sound image). In this option, adjust the output balance between the center and front left/right speakers to determine the scale for the central sound image. The available settings for this option are between “0” and “7.” The default value is “3.”

e. NEO:6 Music Center Image

This setting can be made when the (Speaker A) Surr Back setting is set to “Main A” in the Speaker Conﬁguration sub-menu.

The DTS NEO:6 Music mode is a listening mode in which an original 2ch source is played as a 6ch source. In this mode, the signal for center channel will be created from the signals deducted to some extent from the left and right front channels. This option allows you to conﬁgure how much the signals are deducted from the left and right channels to produce the center channel

image. The available settings for this option are between “0” and “5.” The default value is “2.”

f. Re-EQ

This option allows you to conﬁgure whether the Re-EQ effect is applied or not. Use this effect when you do not want to overemphasize the treble sound.

Off (Default): The effect is not applied.

On: Adjusts the soundtrack in which the treble is overemphasized, so that the sound is optimized for home theater.

g. Front Speaker

This option conﬁgures the front speakers to use when playing the source in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS NEO:6 listening modes. Select the speaker terminals to which the speakers you want to use are connected. This setting can be made when the “(Speaker B) Front L/R” is set to “Main A” in the Speaker Conﬁguration sub- menu.

•When the impedance setting for “Front L/R A” or

“Front L/R B” in the Speaker Impedance sub-menu is set to “6 ohms” or “4 ohms,” the available options will

be “A” and “B.”

A (Default): Outputs the source from the speakers connected to the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS A terminals.

B:Outputs the source from the speakers connected to the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS B terminals.

A+B: Outputs the source from the speakers connected to the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS A and FRONT L/R SPEAKERS B terminals. Note that this option is not available when the front speakers are in Bi-amp or in BTL conﬁguration.

h.Center Speaker

This option conﬁgures the center speaker to use when playing the source in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS NEO:6 listening modes. Select the speaker terminal to which the speaker you want to use is connected. This setting can be made when the “(Speaker B) Center” is set to “Main A” in the Speaker Conﬁguration sub-menu.

•When the impedance setting for “Center A” or

“Center B” in the Speaker Impedance sub-menu is set to “6 ohms” or “4 ohms,” the available options will be “A” and “B.”

A (Default): Outputs the source from the speaker connected to the CENTER SPEAKERS A terminal.

B:Outputs the source from the speaker connected to the CENTER SPEAKERS B terminal.

A+B: Outputs the source from the speakers connected to the CENTER SPEAKERS A and CENTER SPEAKERS B terminals.
