Auto listening mode

The Auto listening mode is the simplest way to listen to any source as it was mastered: the output from the speakers mirrors the channels in the source material.

If you set up the system for Front surround (page 10), the Front Surround modes will give the best results.

2Use / to select ‘C WIDTH’, ‘DIMEN.’ or ‘PANORAMA’ then press ENTER to confirm.

C WIDTH (Center Width) – Provides a better blend of the front speakers by spreading the center channel between the front right and left speakers, making it sound wider (higher settings) or narrower (lower settings).

DIMEN. (Dimension) – Adjusts the depth of the surround sound balance from front to back, making the sound more distant (minus settings), or more forward (positive settings).

PANORAMA – Extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for a ‘wraparound’ effect.
