This submenu allows the user to adjust the center, side and surround speaker delays and levels as well as the LFE ,
only when the MODE is DTS and for the currently selected input. When the Mode is anything other than DTS, all
settings in this sub menu will have no effect. As with the settings in the Dolby Digital Setup sub menus, these DTS

The available post processing consists of:
OFF. Which applies no further processing;
Stereo Front/Rear ( ST/FR ), which takes signals from the front and surround lefts, adds them together and outputs this
sum equally to the front left and surround left speakers. The same applies for the right front and surround speakers.
The process varies slightly, depending on whether the
MODE is matrix, stereo or mono.
Party , which takes parts of each original channels signal, blends them with al others and outputs this mix to all
speakers. In this way, each speaker will have a blend of all speakers.
Center Spread ( CNTR SPREAD ) is a process in which the center speaker level is reduced and added to the front
left/right speakers. It is enabled in this Post Process sub menu, and altered in the SETUP / INP / page 3 sub menu,
under the CTRSPD parameter.
