Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx: This extends two channel or 5.1 channel source material to the center
channel, surround channels and back channel speakers in a 7.1 channel system. Pro Logic IIx
produces a spacious, enveloping effect. It is designed for use with any stereo, Dolby 2.0, Dolby
Pro Logic, Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1 or Surround EX signal. With a single back channel speaker
it is known as 6.1 channel, and with two back channel speakers it is known as 7.1 channel.
There are two types of Pro Logic IIx: Pro Logic IIx Movie and Pro Logic IIx Music. These are
our recommended surround modes if you have a 6.1 or 7.1 channel system. Please note that
Pro Logic IIx Movie is not compatible with Dolby Digital 5.1 with a 6.1 channel system. We
encourage you to rediscover how exciting and alive your older recordings will sound.
•
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie
: This version of
Pro Logic IIx is optimized for movies and
computer games. By feeding the surround
and back channel speakers different signals, it
produces a more spacious, enveloping effect.
•
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music
: This version of Pro
Logic IIx is optimized for music listening; it is designed to produce very natural-sounding
surround ambience from stereo sources such as CDs. It has three parameters not found in
Pro Logic IIx Movie:
-
Center Width
: This adjusts the apparent
width of the center-channel signal.
-
Panorama
: This wraps the sound of the
front left and right speakers around the
listening area.
-
Dimension
: This moves the surround field
toward the back or front of the room.
These settings are made on the Dolby/DTS setup page of the Audio Setup menu.
Note:
Pro Logic IIx operates with the same menu settings you already made for Pro Logic II.
