When the MULTI INPUT source is selected
on the INPUT SETUP menu, the available
options change to reflect the fact that these
inputs are direct analog inputs and bypass
the RSP-1068’s digital processing. The INPUT,
CINEMA EQ, and DEFAULT MODE options
are not available since these are all digitally
implemented features.
The VID INPUT, INPUT LABEL, and 12V TRIG-
GER options are still available and work as
described on the previous menu.
One additional option, LFE REDIRECT, provides
an alternative bass management configuration.
Typically, the eight channels of the MULTI INPUT
are configured as pure analog bypass signals,
going straight from the inputs to the volume
control and the preamp outputs, bypassing all of
the digital processing. There are no crossovers
and no bass management; therefore, whatever
signal goes into the subwoofer channel will be
sent to the subwoofer preamp output.
This configuration may not be ideal for mul-
tichannel systems configured with high-pass
speakers, redirecting bass to a powered
subwoofer. An option, called LFE REDIRECT,
sends the seven main channels directly to the
outputs as usual. In addition, it takes a duplicate
copy of these seven channels, combines them
into mono, and routes them through a 100 Hz
analog low-pass crossover to the subwoofer
preamp output. This creates a summed mono
subwoofer signal, derived from the seven main
channels of the MULTI INPUT.
Use the LFE REDIRECT off for the pure analog
bypass configuration. Use the LFE REDIRECT
on setting to derive the mono summed sub-
woofer output.

When Dolby Pro Logic II (x) is selected as the
default surround mode on the INPUT SETUP
menu, there are additional settings and pa-
rameters to optimize the surround decoding for
music or movie soundtracks. Dolby Pro Logic
II uses matrix decoding algorithms to derive
a center channel and surround channels from
2-channel source material.
The first line of the Dolby Pro Logic II (x) sub-
menu selects CINEMA or MUSIC modes for
matrix decoding. Use the +/– buttons on the
remote to select a mode.
Select CINEMA to optimize for Dolby Surround
encoded movie soundtracks including increased
surround separation and full-bandwidth sur-
round channel frequency response.
Select MUSIC to optimize for musical record-
ings. When the MUSIC mode is selected, three
additional parameters will be available on
the OSD screen. Use the UP/DOWN buttons
on the remote to select a parameter. Use the
+/– buttons to change the selected parameter
as follows:
• PANORAMA: The Panorama option
extends the front stereo image to include
the surround speakers for a dramatic
“wraparound” effect. The options are OFF
or ON.
• DIMENSION: The Dimension option al-
lows you to gradually adjust the soundfield
towards the front or towards the rear. There
are seven incremental settings from 0 to 6.
A setting of 0 shifts the soundfield towards
the rear for maximum surround effect. A
setting of 6 shifts the soundfield to the front
for minimum surround effect. The default
setting of 3 provides a “neutral” balance
between the two extremes.
• CENTER WIDTH: The Center Width option
allows you to spread the signal intended for
the center speaker to the left and right front
speakers, widening the perceived sound-
field. There are eight incremental settings
from 0 to 7. With the default setting of 0,
there is no center width spreading and all
of the center channel information is sent to
the center speaker. The maximum setting
of 7 shifts all of the center channel signal
to the left and right speakers, essentially
muting the center speaker and maximiz-
ing the soundfield width. Other settings
provide incremental steps between the two
extremes.
When you have completed all the desired
adjustments, highlight the INPUT SETUP MENU
line at the bottom of the screen and press the
ENTER button to return to the INPUT SETUP
menu (or just press the ENTER button).

When DTS Neo:6 is selected as the default
surround mode on the INPUT SETUP menu,
there are additional option settings and pa-
rameters available to optimize the surround
decoding for various types of recordings,
music or movie soundtracks. DTS Neo:6 uses
matrix decoding algorithms to derive a center
channel and surround channels from 2-channel
source material.
In DTS Neo:6 surround mode, there will only be
one choice available on the sub-menu: selecting
CINEMA or MUSIC modes. Use the +/– buttons
on the remote to change the settings.
• Select CINEMA to optimize the DTS Neo:6
decoding for movie soundtracks.
• Select MUSIC to optimize the DTS Neo:6
decoding for musical recordings.
When you have completed the setting, highlight
the INPUT SETUP MENU line at the bottom
of the screen and press the ENTER button to
return to the INPUT SETUP menu (or just press
the ENTER button).
