AVR
Each surround-mode category is set to a default surround mode:
• Virtual Surround: Virtual speaker.
• Stereo: 2-CH Stereo.
• Movie: Logic 7 Movie.
• Music: Logic 7 Music.
• Game: Logic 7 Game.
You may select a different mode for each category. Below is a complete list of available
surround modes. (The actual surround modes available will depend on the number of
speakers in your system.)
• Virtual Surround: Virtual speaker.
• Stereo: 2-CH Stereo or 5-CH Stereo.
• Movie: Logic 7 Movie, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie.
• Music: Logic 7 Music, DTS Neo:6 Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Music.
• Game: Logic 7 Game or Dolby Pro Logic II Game.
Once you have programmed the surround mode for each type of audio, select the line
from the Surround Modes menu to override the AVR's automatic surround-mode selection.
The AVR will use the same surround mode the next time the source is selected.
Dolby PLII Music: Some additional settings are available when you select the Dolby Pro
Logic II Music Mode in the Surround Modes menu:
Center Width: This setting affects how vocals sound through the three front speakers.
A lower number focuses the vocal information tightly on the center channel. Higher
numbers (up to 7) broaden the vocal soundstage. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust.
Dimension: This setting affects the depth of the surround presentation, allowing you to
"move" the sound toward the front or rear of the room. The setting of "0" is a neutral
default. Setting "F-3" moves the sound toward the front of the room, while setting "R-3"
moves the sound toward the rear. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust it.
Panorama: With the Panorama mode turned on, some of the sound from the front
speakers is moved to the surround speakers, creating an enveloping "wraparound"
effect. Each press of the OK button toggles the setting On or Off.
Please refer to Table A8 in the Appendix for more information on which surround modes
