Multiplex
Input Channel
`Main

multiplex source is output. Use it to select audio
channels or languages with multiplex sources,
multilingual TV broadcasts, and so on.
Mono
Input Channel
`Left + Right
`Left
`Right
This setting specifies the channel to be used for
playing any 2-channel digital source such as Dolby
Digital, or 2-channel analog/PCM source in the Mono
listening mode.
Output Speaker
`Center

Mono audio is output by the center speaker.
`Left / Right:
Mono audio is output by the front left and right
speakers.
This setting determines which speakers output mono
audio when the Mono listening mode is selected.
Note
If the “Center” setting is set to “None” (page 64), this
setting cannot be selected.
Dolby
PL IIx Music (2ch Input)
These settings apply to only 2-channel stereo
sources.
If you’re not using any surround back speakers, these
settings apply to Dolby Pro Logic II, not Dolby Pro
Logic IIx.
Panorama
`On
`Off
With this setting, you can broaden the width of the
front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Music listening mode.
Dimension
`–3 to 0
to +3
With this setting, you can move the sound field
forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic
IIx Music listening mode. Higher settings move the
sound field backward. Lower settings move it forward.
If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much
surround sound, move the sound field forward to
improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image
feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround
sound, move it backward.
Center Width
`0 to 3
to 7
With this setting, you can adjust the width of the
sound from the center speaker when using the Dolby
Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally, if you’re
using a center speaker, the center channel sound is
output from only the center speaker. (If you’re not
using a center speaker, the center channel sound will
be distributed to the front left and right speakers to
create a phantom center.) This setting controls the
front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust
the weight of the center channel sound.
PL IIz Height Gain
`Low
`Mid
`High
The Height Gain Control in Dolby Pro Logic IIz
enables the listener to select how much gain is
applied to the front high speakers. There are three
settings, “Low”, “Mid” and “High”, and the front high
speakers are accentuated in that order. While “Mid” is
the default listening setting, the listener may adjust
the Height Gain Control to their personal preference.
Note
If the “Front High” settings is set to “None” (page 64),
this setting cannot be selected.
If the “Powered Zone 2” setting is set to “Yes” and Zone 2
is turned on, this setting cannot be selected.
Dolby EX
`Auto:
If the source signal contains a Dolby EX flag, the
Dolby EX or THX Surround EX listening mode is
used.
`Manual
:
You can select any available listening mode.
This setting determines how Dolby EX encoded
signals are handled. This setting is unavailable if no
surround back speakers are connected. This setting
is effective with Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and
Dolby TrueHD only.
Note
If the “Surround Back” setting is set to “None
(page 64), this setting cannot be selected.
If the “Powered Zone 2” setting is set to “Yes” and Zone 2
is turned on, this setting cannot be selected.
If the “Front High” or “Front Wide” setting is enabled
(page 64), this setting is fixed to “Manual”.
