Adjusting the acoustic image (BI-PHANTOM)
In most installations, the centre speaker must be placed directly
between the front passenger and driver. Using this function, the centre
channel information is distributed to the left and right speakers. This
creates an acoustic image simulating a centre speaker directly in front
of each listener. Adjusting the centre width in PL II MUSIC (see
“Using the Pro Logic II Mode,” page 50), makes this function
ineffective.
•Avoid stopping, pausing, switching the disc, cueing, fast-forwarding
or switching the audio channel of this unit while making this
adjustment. The setting is cancelled if the Decode mode is switched.

Achieving powerful high volume sound
(LISTENING)
With Dolby Digital, the dynamic range is compressed so that
powerful sound can be achieved at regular volume levels. This
compression can be cancelled to achieve an energetic sound with even
greater power, like the sound in a movie theatre.
This function works only in the Dolby Digital mode.
