In most installations, the center speaker must be placed directly between
the front passenger and driver. Using this function, the center channel
information is distributed to the left and right speakers. This creates an
acoustic image simulating a center speaker directly in front of each
listener. Adjusting the center width in PL II MUSIC (see “Using the Pro
Logic II Mode,” page 50), makes this function ineffective.
• Avoid stopping, pausing, switching the disc, cueing, fast-forwarding
or switching the audio channel of this unit while making this
adjustment. The setting is canceled if the Decode mode is switched.
Touch [ ] or [ ] of BI-PHANTOM to adjust the level.
The level can be adjusted within the range of -5 to +6 (when
setting the A.PROCESSOR mode: -5 dB to +5 dB). The higher
the level, the more the position of the center speaker is shifted to
the sides.
The BI-PHANTOM function is turned off by touching [OFF].

The REAR MIX function is turned off by touching [OFF].
• This adjustment is ineffective when the rear speaker setup setting is
set to “OFF.”
• For linear PCM signals, the voice is output from the rear speaker
regardless of the REAR FILL and REAR MIX setting.
With Dolby Digital, the dynamic range is compressed so that powerful
sound can be achieved at regular volume levels. This compression can
be canceled to achieve an energetic sound with even greater power, like
the sound in a movie theater.
This function works only in the Dolby Digital mode.
Touch [ ] or [ ] of LISTENING MODE to select STD or MAX.

from the different speakers at the listening position.
