Using the Advanced surround effects
The Advanced surround effects can be used for a variety of additional surround sound effects. Most Advanced Surround modes are designed to be used with film soundtracks, but some modes are also suited for music sources. Try different settings with various soundtracks to see which you like.

� Press ADV. SURR (ADVANCED SURROUND) repeatedly to select a listening mode. � ADVANCED MOVIE � Simulates the relaxed environment of a movie theater, and is suitable for watching movies. � ADVANCED MUSIC � Simulates the acoustic environment of a large concert hall and is suitable for music or musical sources. � TV SURROUND � This mode produces surround sound for both mono and stereo TV sources. It is useful for older movies recorded with mono soundtracks. � SPORTS � This is designed for sports programs with a lot of action, adding to the excitement by bringing background action to the forefront. � ADVANCED GAME � Useful when playing video games. It works especially well with sound moving from left to right in game software with a lot of movement. � EXPANDED � This mode is especially designed to give sound depth to stereo sources, and lets you hear two-channel (stereo) signals as simulated multichannel surround sound. Use with Dolby Pro Logic for a stereo surround effect. You can also use with Dolby Digital sources for a wider stereo field than the Standard modes. � 7ch STEREO � This can be selected to give multichannel sound to a stereo source, using all of the speakers in your setup. � PhonesSurround � When listening through headphones, you can still get the effect of overall surround. Note � Depending on the source and the sound mode you have selected, you may not get sound from the surround back speakers in your setup. For more on this, refer to Using the surround back channel (Extended mode) on page 36. When listening to 2-channel sources in Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode, there are three further parameters you can adjust: Center Width, Dimension, and Panorama.

With �2 Pro Logic IIx MUSIC� mode active, press

EFFECT/CH SEL repeatedly to select CENTER WIDTH, DIMENSION or PANORAMA. � CENTER WIDTH � Provides a better blend of the front speakers by spreading the center channel between the front right and left speakers, making it sound wider (higher settings) or narrower (lower settings). (This is applicable only when using a center speaker.) � DIMENSION � Adjusts the depth of the surround sound balance from front to back, making the sound more distant (minus settings), or more forward (positive settings). � PANORAMA � Extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers for a �wraparound� effect. 2 Use the +/� buttons to adjust the setting. Center Width is adjustable between 0 and 7 (default : 3); Dimension between �3 and +3 (default : 0); Panorama is On or Off (default : Off). 3 Press EFFECT/CH SEL again to adjust other settings. Note � If the Extended mode is switched off, 2 Pro Logic IIx (above) becomes 2 Pro Logic II (5.1 channel sound), however the above setting will still be effective.
