Although this speaker system's sound quality is
already adjusted. You can change the settings, as you
like, for each surround mode individually. The
following settings remain stored in their respective
surround mode until you change them.
1 Playback a program and choose a surround mode.
2 Make the following sound adjustments according
to your preference and/or the type of program
you are watching.
* Since BALANCE L and R control sound from the front
speakers, they have little effect on DOLBY SUR when the
source software has a high proportion of center-channel
sound.
To restore the factory settings

Using an External Center
Speaker
Since this system incorporates a center speaker (see
page 5), you don't have to connect a center speaker.
However, it is possible to connect an active center
speaker to the CENTER OUT terminal.
If you make this connection, be sure to make the
following adjustments for Dolby Pro Logic Surround.
Connecting a center speaker lets you choose from 4
different Dolby Pro Logic Surround center modes:
NORMAL, WIDE, 3 CH (3 Channel logic), or
PHANTOM. Use the NORMAL or WIDE mode when
center and rear speakers are connected. For details on
Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound, see page 14.
1 Press SURROUND on the front left speaker to
choose PRO LOGIC. (“PRO LOGIC” appears in
the display instead of “DOLBY SUR” when you
connect an external center speaker.)
2 Press CENTER MODE on the front left speaker a
few times until the center mode you want appears
in the display.
3 Adjust the speaker volume and delay time, if
necessary, by referring to page 11.
