Adjustment of the CENTER level

If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the center speaker with this control even if the output level is already set in “Speaker balance adjustment” on page 12.

CENTER

If the digital sound field program is in the CONCERT VIDEO, MONO MOVIE, ROCK CONCERT or CONCERT HALL mode, this adjustment is unnecessary.

Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC and DOLBY PRO LOGIC ENHANCED modes.

If a digital sound field program is not used, this adjustment is unnecessary.

Adjustment of the REAR level

If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the rear speakers with this control even if the output level is already set in “Speaker balance adjustment” on page 12.

Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in all the digital sound field programs.

If a digital sound field program is not used, this adjustment is unnecessary.

Adjustment of DELAY TIME

You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound with the DELAY TIME keys.

The DELAY TIME keys are effective with all programs.

By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear speakers can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect.

1. PRO LOGIC : from 15 to 30 milliseconds (Preset value: 20 milliseconds)

2. PRO LOGIC : from 15 to 30 milliseconds

ENHANCED (Preset value: 20 milliseconds)

3.CONCERT VIDEO : from 1 to 100 milliseconds (Preset value: 25 milliseconds)

4.MONO MOVIE : from 1 to 100 milliseconds (Preset value: 25 milliseconds)

5.ROCK CONCERT : from 1 to 100 milliseconds (Preset value: 15 milliseconds)

6.CONCERT HALL : from 1 to 100 milliseconds (Preset value: 30 milliseconds)

By continuously pressing “+” or “–” key, the value changes continuously.

However, the value stops changing momentarily at the preset point.

Notes

Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with some sources. Experiment with the DELAY TIME keys to create the effect that you find most suitable.

The values of the DELAY TIME you set the last time will remain memorized even when the power of this unit is off. However, if the power plug cord is kept disconnected for more than two weeks, these values will be invalid.
