[Variable range] 0 ~ 3 ~ 7 A0 Delay Time Adjust delay time to control sound stage size. [Variable range] 0 ms ~ 30 ms ~ 300ms A1 Effect Level Adjust the strength of the surround effect. [Variable range] 1 ~ 10 ~ 15 Set to a lower level if the positioning and sense of phase of the surround signals seems unnatural. A2 Room Size Determine size of acoustic environment. [Selectable items] Small : Simulate acoustics of a small room. Med.S : Simulate acoustics of a medium-small room. Medium : Simulate acoustics of a medium room. Med.L : Simulate acoustics of a medium-large room. Large : Simulate acoustics of a large room. NOTE "Room Size" does not indicate the size of the room in which sources are played. A3 AFDM (Auto Flag Detect Mode) Auto-select surround mode by source. This function only works for software containing a special identification signal. If the software being played is recorded in Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES, it is played in 6.1-channels. If not, it is played in 5.1-channels. [Selectable items] ON OFF Example : Playing Dolby Digital software (with EX flag) • When "AFDM" is set to "ON", the surround mode is automatically set to the DOLBY + PLgx CINEMA mode. • To play in the Dolby Digital EX mode, set "AFDM" to "OFF" and "SB CH Out" to "MTRX ON". • S ome Dolby Digital EX sources do not include EX flags. If the playback mode does not switch automatically even when "AFDM" is set to "ON", set "SB CH Out" to "MTRX ON" or "PLIIx CINEMA". • W hen the "Amp Assign" setting is "7.1ch", and using the surround back speakers, you can set "AFDM". ENGLISH A4 SB CH Out (Selectable displays during multi-channel source playback.) Select playback mode for surround back channels. [Selectable items] OFF : No signal is played from the surround back channels. MTRX ON : The surround channel signals undergo digital matrix processing and are output from the surround back channels. PLIIx CINEMA z1 : Decoded in Dolby Pro Logic IIx Cinema mode, surround back signal played. PLIIx MUSIC z2 : Decoded in Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode, surround back signal played. ES MTRX z3 : DTS signal played with digital matrix processing. ES DSCRT z4 : Signal included in DTS-ES Discrete 6.1-channel sources played. DSCRT ON : Mode for discrete playback of surround back signals included in 7.1-channel digital discrete audio signals (DVD, etc.). z1: This can be selected when "Surround Back Speaker" is set to "2spkrs" at the menu "Manual Setup" - "Speaker Setup" - "Speaker Configuration" setting (vpage 29). z2: This can be selected when "Surround Back Speaker" is set to "2spkrs" or "1spkr" at the menu "Manual Setup" - "Speaker Setup" -"Speaker Configuration" setting. z3: This can be selected when playing DTS sources. z4: This can be selected when playing DTS sources including a discrete 6.1-channel signal identification signal. Settings can also be made when [STANDARD] is pressed. When using surround back speakers, adopt the following settings. q Adopt "7.1ch" for the "Amp Assign" setting. • The default setting for the Amp Assign mode of AVR-1909 is "ZONE2". w Adopt a setting other than "OFF" for the "SB CH Out" setting of "Surround Parameter".
