When adjusting the sound parameters

While playing digital signals from Dolby Digital or DTS program source or listening in Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode, you can adjust their parameters for optimum surround effect.

1. Press the SOUND PARAMETER button.

• Then "DRC : ~ " (or "PANO : ~ ") is displayed for several seconds.

• If the parameter mode disappears, press this button again.

2. Press the CURSOR UP()/DOWN() buttons to select the desired parameter.

• Each time these buttons are pressed, the parameter mode changes as follows:

"DRC" "PANO" "C.WIDTH" "DIMEN"

(Dynamic Range Compression) (Panorama mode) (Center width control)

(Dimension control)

• "DRC" can be selected only while playing digital signals from Dolby Digital or DTS source.

• "PANO", "C.WIDTH" and "DIMEN" can be selected only while listening in Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode.

3. Press the CURSOR LEFT()/ RIGHT() buttons to adjust the selected parameter as desired.

When selecting the "DRC(Dynamic Range Compression:

Night mode)"

This function compresses the dynamic range of previously specified parts of Dolby Digital or DTS sound track (with extremely high volume) to minimize the difference in volume between the specified and non- specified parts. This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track when watching movies at night at low levels. The night mode can be set to OFF or ON (default value : OFF).

Note : In some Dolby Digital or DTS softwares, the night mode may not be valid.

When selecting the "PANO (Panorama)" mode

This mode extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting "wraparound" effect with side wall imaging. Select "OFF" or "ON"(default value: OFF).

When selecting the "C. WIDTH (Center width)" control

This adjusts the center image so it may be heard only from the center speaker, only from the left/right speakers as a phantom image, or from all three front speakers to varying degrees.

The control can be set in 8 steps from 0 to 7(default value : 3).

When selecting the "DIMEN (Dimension)" control

This gradually adjusts the soundfield either towards the front or towards the rear. The control can be set in 7 steps from -3 to +3 (default value : 0).

4. Repeat the above steps 2 and 3 to adjust other parameters.
