This setting determines which channel of a stereo 
multiplex source is output. Use it to select audio channels 
or languages with multiplex sources, multilingual TV 
broadcasts, and so on.

Left + Right 

`

`

This setting specifies the channel to be used for playing 
any 2-channel digital source such as Dolby Digital, or 2-
channel analog/PCM source in the Mono listening mode.

■

These settings apply to only 2-channel stereo sources.
If you’re not using any surround back speakers, these 
settings apply to Dolby Pro Logic II, not Dolby Pro Logic 
IIx.

Off 

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front 
stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music 
listening mode.

`

–3 to 0 to +3

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or 
backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music 
listening mode. Higher settings move the sound field 
backward. Lower settings move it forward.
If the stereo image 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.

`

0 to 3 to 7

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound 
from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic 
IIx Music listening mode. Normally, if you’re using a 
center speaker, the center channel sound is output from 
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 adjust the weight of the center channel 
sound.

This setting is set automatically by Audyssey 2EQ
