Center Distance:
If your center channel speaker is on
the same plane, or further away than your main speak-
ers set this to 0 ft. If the center channel is closer to the
listener than the main speakers, set this to the closest
approximation to how much closer (in feet) the center
channel is to the listening position.
Rear Distance:
Likewise, if the rear (surround) chan-
nels are closer to the listener than the front channels
are, select the setting nearest to how much closer the
surround channels are. If the surrounds are the same
distance as, or farther away than, the front speakers
set this to 0 ft.
Downmix:
If you do not have a surround speaker system con-
nected to the AVS500, use this menu to select the way
the unit outputs 2-channel sound.
•
LT/RT
– sends the Left and Right channels of the
5.1 channel surround mix to the main left and right
outputs.
•
STEREO
– Stereo remixes all of the main channels
to the two stereo channels.
•
VSS
– Stands for Virtual Surround Sound. This
function simulates an approximation of a true sur-
round system using only two speakers.
•
Downmix Off (default)
– Use this setting for all
applications with rear speakers.
Note: When making a STEREO recording from one of
the A/V outputs, either set the DOWNMIX to STEREO or
select a STEREO audio track when the source is a DVD.
AUDIO SETUP PAGE
Select the input and output formats, Pro Logic set-
tings, and dynamic range options.
Audio Out:
Leave on Analog (default) to use the con-
ventional 5.1 outputs. Set to SPDIF/RAW to use the
optical output (rear chanel) or coaxial (front panel) out-
put to feed an external Dolby Digital or DTS surround
processor. Set to LPCM (Linear Pulse Code
Modulation) to feed an outboard stereo D to A convert-
er or Stereo-only digital input.
