Simulated Surround & Dynamic Range Settings
Stereo & Mono Enhance Settings
The Cinema Rhapsody Mach 4 features two
ADA modes that are designed to enhance your
experience when viewing stereo or mono source
material such as older lms, TV shows, or other
programming that is neither Dolby Pro Logic or
5.1 encoded.
Stereo Enhance is designed to provide spatial
separation using the entire speaker array. This
mode will work well for both strong and weak
stereo signals.
Mono Enhance is similar but works with mono
source material creating an enveloping surround
sound experience.
Uniquely, the Cinema Rhapsody Mach 4 permits
you to customize these simulated surround sound
modes to the room environment by setting an at-
tenuation level (level of audio to the surrounds)
and delay level independently for each of these
two modes. Changes are made in real time so
that as you make adjustments to these setting,
you can hear the changes. To setup these modes,
play the appropriate type of source material and
adjust according to personal preference.
In the PC program these changes are made under
the Modes tab under Enhancements.
From the Cinema Rhapsody Mach 4’s front panel,
while in setup mode, navigate to the PRO SETUP
page and then to the ENHANCEMENTS page.
Use the Mode knob to select the feature you wish
to adjust and then use the Input knob to adjust
its setting.
Dynamic Range Settings
Dynamic Range is normally set to Max in typical
ADA home theater systems as this setting will
provide the vibrant experience. There are two
other settings available that can only be set via
the PC program. These minimize the range of
the audio experience such that there is less of a
volume difference between loud sounds and softer
sounds. In theaters where the whispers are too
soft or the explosions too loud, you can elect to try
either Dynamic Range Min or Mid. This feature
can only be adjusted from the PC program.
