sources; see Center image setting below.

Stereo – See Listening in stereo on page 32.

With multichannel sources, you can select (according to format):

StandardDecode – Listening in Dolby Digital or DTS surround
decoding. Plays back multichannel sources like Dolby Digital,
DTS, and multichannel PCM with the most standard decoder.

Note

• After the surround back signals of the 6.1/7.1-channel audio

represented by DTS-ES are properly decoded, the original virtual
surround back function outputs the surround back signals in
combination with surround signals.

• You cannot select a mode other than Auto and Stereo while

playing back DTS-HD, DTS-Express, or Dolby TrueHD (176.4 kHz/
192 kHz). Also, you cannot select DTS Neo:6 for Dolby Digital

Dolby Pro Logic II Music settings

When listening in Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode (see above), there

Center Width – Provides a better blend of the front speakers by
spreading the center channel between the front right and left
speakers, making it sound wider (higher settings) or narrower
(lower settings).
As this product uses a dual center speaker system, you should
normally use the

C.Width 3 setting.

Dimension – Adjusts the depth of the surround sound balance
from front to back, making the sound more distant (minus
settings), or more forward (positive settings).

Panorama – Extends the front stereo image to include the
surround speakers for a ‘wraparound’ effect.
