Pro Logic (PRO LOGIC)
Lets you specify the Pro Logic decoding
setting.
•
To set the receiver to perform Pro Logic
decoding if Dolby surround encoded flag is ON
or if Pro Logic decoding produces a better
sound field, select “AUTO”.
•
To set the receiver to perform Pro Logic
decoding on rear signals, regardless of the
Dolby surround encoded flag, select “ON”.
•
To set the receiver not to perform Pro Logic
decoding, select “OFF”.
Note
Pro Logic decoding does not function for MPEG
format signals.
Effect level (EFFECT)
Lets you adjust the “presence” of the current
surround effect.
Wall type (WALL)
Lets you control the level of the high

Front reverberation (FRONT
REVERB)
This parameter can be used when “DIGITAL
CONCERT HALL A, B” is selected. This
parameter lets you adjust the amount of
reverberations to add to the front signals
according to the original reverberations in the
source.
•
To increase front reverberations, select “WET”.
•
To decrease front reverberations, select “DRY”.
Screen depth (SCREEN DEPTH)
In a movie theater, sound seems to come from
inside the image reflected on the movie screen.
This parameter lets you create the same
