Sound Mode Adjustments (Remote Control Only)

Note: If you do not use a center speaker, the monaural signals are only repro- duced if you select PHANTOM.

5-D Theater

5-D Theater provides clearer and more dynamic sound effects by out- putting audio signals through the rear channel to simulate the stereo sound, compared with a standard surround system which provides only

monaural signals to the rear speakers. Pressto turn this feature on/off.

DVD 5.1-Channel Input

Together with a multi-channel decoder or DVD player with 5.1-channel output, you can feed sound to all five speaker channels. The front L/R, surround L/R, center speaker channels, and the subwoofer have inde- pendent signals for enhanced rich sound. The subwoofer channel con- tains bass sound only and the frequency range is smaller than the other speaker channels, so it is called 5.1-channel system.

Note: This feature is active only when you select DVD/TV function.

Press DVD/TV on the front panel to select the function, then press DVD/TV again. Each time you press the button, the mode alternates between normal and 5.1CH operations.

To use this feature using the remote control, press DVD/TV followed by SURROUND, then press 5.1CH.

Note: When you use 5.1CH sound mode, you cannot use DOLBY VIRTUAL/ SRS, PRO LOGIC, 5-D THEATER, and DIRECT modes. If you press a button for any of these modes, DVD 5.1CH flashes on the display as a reminder.

Center Mode Setting

The center mode setting affects the center channel’s bass signals. It operates only when you select the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby 3CH Logic mode. On the remote control, press SURROUND then CENTER MODE. Each time you press CENTER MODE, the setting changes: NORMAL, WIDE, PHANTOM, or 3CH LOGIC.

NORMAL — For a small center speaker. The front left and right speakers play the center-channel bass sounds.

WIDE — For a medium or large center speaker. The center speaker plays the center-channel bass sounds.

PHANTOM — For no center speaker. All center-channel sound comes from the front left and right speakers.

3CH LOGIC — For no rear speakers. The rear channel’s sound is sent to the front left and right speakers.
