Advanced Setup--Continued
4-1. Mono
• a. Output Channel
This setting determines which speakers are nsed to out-
put mono attdio when the Mono listening mode is used.
L/R: Mono audio is output from the front left and
right speakers (default).
Center: Mono audio is output from the center speaker.
• b. Academy (TX-SRT02/702E only)
Early mo_.ies had a mono soundtrack that suffered from
attdible hiss and a poor high-frequency response due to
the quality of the film. To in]prove matters, the high-fre-
quencies were boosted before being recorded onto film,
and then attenuated to their original levels during play-
back in the movie theater. Some old movies have been
transferred to newer distribution media without the high
frequencies being attenuated, creating a harsh sound
with pronounced hiss. With the Academy Filter, which is
based on the playback techniques used in those clays, you
can attenuate those high-frequencies to their original lev-
els and enjoy the movie as it was intended to be heard.
On: Academy Filter on.
Off: Academy Filter off (def:tnlt).
4-2. PLIIx/Neo:6
If no surronnd back speakers are connected, this item
will be "PLII/Neo:6" instead of "PLIlx/Neo:6."
• a. Panorama
With this function, you can broaden the width of the
front stereo inmge when ]]sing the Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Music listening mode.
On: Panorama function on.
Off: Panorama fimction off (def:tult).
• b. Dimension
With this setting, you can move the sound field forward
or backward when ]]sing the Dolby Pro Logic Ilx Music
listening mode. The default setting is 3. Higher settings
move the sound field tUrward. Lower settings move it
backward.
If the stereo inaage 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.
• c. Center Width
With this function, you can adjust the width of the sound
from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic
lIx Music listening mode. If you're using a center
speaker, with Dolby Pro Logic IIx, the center channel
sound is output by 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 ac[iust the weight
of the center channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to
7 (defimlt is 3).
• d. Center Image
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel
surround sound from 2-channel (stereo) sonrces. With
this setting, you can specify by how nmch the front left
and right channel output is attenuated in order to create
the center channel. It can be adjnsted from 0 to 5 (default
is 3).
When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is
attenuated by half( 6 dB), giving the impression that the
sound is located centrally. This setting works well when
the listening position is considerably off center. When
set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenu-
ated, maintaining the original stereo balance.
4-3. Enhance, 4-4. Orchestra, 4-5.
Unplugged, 4-6. Studio-Mix, 4-7. TV Logic
& 4-8. Mono Movie
These settings apply to the Onkyo original DSP listening
modes.
• a. Front Effect
With this setting, you can tnrn off the reverb for the front
speakers. This is nsefld when playing live nmterial that
already contains live reverberation and the reverb added
by the DSP listening mode simply blurs the original
sound. When the Front Effect is turned off, no reverb is
added to the front left, right, and center speakers and the
original reverberation can be heard as it is.
On: Front Effect on (def:tult).
Off: Front Effect off.
• b. Reverb Level
With this setting, you can adjust the amount of reverb to
suit yonr listening environment, source material, and so
on. The available settings are: Low, Middle (def:tult),
and High.
• c. ReverbTime
With this setting, you can adjnst the reverb time to suit
your listening environment, source material, and so on.
The available settings are: Short, Middle (default), and
Long.
