■ Late Night (Dolby Digital)
With this function you can reduce the dynamic range of
Dolby Digital material so that you can still hear quiet parts
even when listening at low volume levels—ideal for watch-
ing movies late at night when you don’t want to disturb any-
one.

■ Center Image (DTS Neo:6 Music)
The DTS Neo:6 surround format derives its center-channel
signal from stereo material, either analog or digital. In Music
mode, the center speaker is intended to augment the left and
right speakers, allowing them to faithfully reproduce the
original stereo mix. For this reason, the center channel sound
is not fully subtracted from the left and right channels. With
this function, you can adjust the amount of subtraction
depending on your room layout and personal preference.

Center Image: 5 ...........nothing is subtracted from the left
and right channels.
Center Image: 0 ...........the left and right channel levels
are halved (–6 dB), making the
center channel more dominant,
particularly useful when the lis-
tener is off-center.

This function has no effect on the level of the center speaker.
■ Panorama (Pro Logic II Music)
With this function, you can extend the front stereo image to
the surround speakers to provide a “wraparound” effect,
especially useful when not much sound is being output by the
surround speakers.

Dimension: 3............... the soundfield is in the normal
position.
Choose a lower setting to move the soundfield forward.
Choose a higher setting to move it backward.

If the stereo image is too wide, or there’s too much surround
information, try moving the soundfield forward to achieve a
better balance. If the stereo image is too narrow, or it sounds
almost like it’s in mono, try moving the soundfield backward.

■ Center Width (Pro Logic II Music)
In Pro Logic II decoding, the center-channel signal is output
by the center speaker. If a center speaker is not used, the
decoder divides the center signal equally between the front
left and right speakers, producing what’s known as a “phan-
tom” center. With this function you can choose to have the
center-channel signal output by only the center speaker, by
only the front left and right speakers (“phantom” center), or
by a mix of the two.

In home theaters, adding some width to the center channel
can improve the balance between the center and front left and
right speakers. Most stereo material will benefit from appro-
priate use of this function.
