Listening Mode Setup
—Continued
This sub-menu allows you to configure the audio effect
and playback options when you play a 2ch input source
in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS NEO:6 listening
modes. This setting can be made when the “(Speaker A)
Center” or “(Speaker A) Surr Back” setting is set to an
option other than “Not Used” in the Speaker
Configuration sub-menu.
• When the “(Speaker A) Surr Back” is set to “Bi-Amp
for Front” or “Not Used,” the PLII mode will be used
instead of the PLIIx mode.
a. Surr Mode (2ch)
Selects the enhancement mode for playback when you
play a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher channel source
through the RDC-7.1. The surround mode setting you
select here will be applied to the Analog/PCM and D.F.
2ch input signals.
• The option “NEO:6 Music” will be available when the
(Speaker A) Surr Back setting is set to “Main A” in the
Speaker Configuration sub-menu.
PLIIx Movie (Default):
Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or
higher channel source using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Movie mode.
PLIIx Music:
Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music
mode.
PLIIx Game:
Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game
mode.
NEO:6 Cinema:
Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the DTS NEO:6 Cinema mode.
NEO:6 Music:
Plays a 2ch source as a 6.1 or higher
channel source using the DTS NEO:6 Music mode.
b. PLIIx Music Panorama
This option allows you to configure the panorama effect
during the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode. This effect
will expand the sound space horizontally.
On:
The panorama effect is turned on.
Off (Default):
The panorama effect is turned off.
c. PLIIx Music Dimension
This option allows you to change the entire sound space
location either forward or backward during the Dolby
Pro Logic IIx Music mode. The option defaults to “3.”
The value “3” locates the sound space to the center
position. If you select values between “2” and “0,” the
sound space moves backward. If you select values
between “4” and “6,” the sound space moves forward.
Tips:
When you feel the sound space is too expanded or that
there is too much surround effect, move the sound space
forward to obtain a better balance. When you feel the
sound space is just like a mono source or is too narrow,
move the sound space backward to obtain a better balance.
d. PLIIx Music Center Width
This option allows you to adjust the sound image width
which the center speaker covers during the Dolby Pro
Logic IIx Music mode. When you play the source in the
Dolby Pro Logic II mode and the center speaker is
connected to the RDC-7.1, the center channel signal is
output only from the center speaker (if the center
speaker is not connected, the center channel signal will
be equally divided into the left and right front speakers
to create a virtual center sound image). In this option,
adjust the output balance between the center and front
left/right speakers to determine the scale for the central
sound image. The available settings for this option are
between “0” and “7.” The default value is “3.”
e. NEO:6 Music Center Image
This setting can be made when the (Speaker A) Surr
Back setting is set to “Main A” in the Speaker
Configuration sub-menu.
The DTS NEO:6 Music mode is a listening mode in
which an original 2ch source is played as a 6ch source.
In this mode, the signal for center channel will be
created from the signals deducted to some extent from
the left and right front channels. This option allows you
to configure how much the signals are deducted from
the left and right channels to produce the center channel
image. The available settings for this option are
between “0” and “5.” The default value is “2.”
f. Re-EQ
This option allows you to configure whether the Re-EQ
effect is applied or not. Use this effect when you do not
want to overemphasize the treble sound.
Off (Default):
The effect is not applied.
On:
Adjusts the soundtrack in which the treble is
overemphasized, so that the sound is optimized for
home theater.
g. Front Speaker
This option configures the front speakers to use when
playing the source in the Dolby Pro Logic IIx or DTS
NEO:6 listening modes. Select the speakers you want to
use. This setting can be made when the “(Speaker B)
Front L/R” is set to “Main A” in the Speaker
Configuration sub-menu.
A (Default):
Outputs the source from the front speakers
configured to “Speaker A.”
B:
Outputs the source from the front speakers
configured to “Speaker B.”
A+B:
Outputs the source from the front speakers
configured to “Speaker A” and “Speaker B.” Note that
this option is not available when the front speakers are
in Bi-amp configuration.
