Adjustment of the CENTER LEVEL

If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the center speaker even if the output level is already set in “SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT” on page 13.

If the digital sound field program ROCK or HALL is selected, this adjustment is useless.

Once the output level is adjusted, the level value will be the same in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC and DOLBY 3 STEREO programs.

If no program is used, this adjustment is useless.

Adjustment of the REAR LEVEL

If desired, you can adjust the sound output level of the rear speakers even if the output level is already set in “SPEAKER BALANCE ADJUSTMENT” on page 13.

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.

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.

Notes

When DOLBY 3 STEREO is selected, this adjustment cannot be made.

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 cord is kept disconnected for more than one week, these values will be automatically changed back to the original factory settings.

When the DELAY TIME key is pressed, the sound is momentarily interrupted.
