By adjusting the LEVEL menu and TONE
menu, you can customise the sound fields to suit
your particular listening situation.
Note on the displayed
parameters
Adjustable parameters vary depending on the
selected sound field. If a parameter appears
dimmed, it may not be available to the selected
sound field or it may be impossible to change it.
Adjusting the LEVEL menu
You can adjust the balance and level of each
speaker. These settings are applied to all sound
fields.
1 Start playing a source encoded with
multi-channel surround effects (DVD,
etc.).
2 Press the black MAIN MENU button
repeatedly until LEVEL appears on the
display.
3 Press / to select the parameter.
For details, see “LEVEL menu
parameters”, below.
4 While monitoring the sound, press /
to adjust the selected parameter.
You can select any parameter except
EFCT. The EFCT. parameter setting is
stored independently for each sound field.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 to adjust the other
parameters.
LEVEL menu parameters
x BAL. XXX (Front speaker balance)
Initial setting: BALANCE
Lets you adjust the balance between the front left and
right speakers. You can adjust in the range of L (+1 to
+8), BALANCE (0), R (+1 to +8) in 17 steps.
x CTR XXX dB
(Centre speaker level)
x SUR.L. XXX dB
(Surround speaker (L) level)
x SUR.R. XXX dB
(Surround speaker (R) level)
x S.W. XXX dB
(Subwoofer level)
Initial setting: 0 dB
You can adjust this parameter from –10 dB to +10 dB
in 1 dB steps.
x COMP.
(Dynamic range compressor)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
soundtrack. This may be useful when you want to
watch movies at low volumes.
• OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
• STD
The dynamic range is compressed as intended by the
recording engineer.
• MAX
The dynamic range is compressed dramatically.
Tip
The dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the dynamic
range information included in the Dolby Digital signal.
STD is the initial setting, but it only enacts light
compression.
Therefore, we recommend using the MAX setting.
This greatly compresses the dynamic range and lets
you watch movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike
analogue limiters, the levels are predetermined and
provide a very natural compression.
Note
Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby
Digital sources only.
x EFCT. XXX (Effect level)
Lets you adjust the size of the current surround
effect. This parameter is displayed only when
C.ST.EX A, C.ST.EX B, C.ST.EX C,
CONCERT, JAZZ, or HALL is selected.
• MIN
The surround effect decreases.
• STD
Normal surround effect is applied.
• MAX
The surround effect increases.
