Basic Operation 2 Surround parameters r EFFECT: This parameter turns the effect signals with multi surround mode speaker effects on and off in the WIDE SCREEN mode. When this parameter is turned off, the SBL and SBR channel signals are equivalent to the SL and SR channels, respectively. LEVEL: This parameter sets the strength of the effect signals in the WIDE SCREEN mode. It can be set in 15 steps, from "1" to "15". Set this to a low level if the positioning or phase of the surround signals sounds unnatural. SB CH OUT • ON: Playback is conducted using the surround back speaker. • OFF: Playback is conducted without using the surround back speaker. NOTE: This operation can be performed directly pressing the SURROUND BACK button on the main unit's panel. ROOM SIZE: This sets the size of the sound field. There are five settings: "small", "med.s" (medium-small), "medium", "med.l" (medium-large) and "large". "small" recreates a small sound field, "large" a large sound field. EFFECT LEVEL: This sets the strength of the surround effect. The level can be set in 15 steps from 1 to 15. Lower the level if the sound seems distorted. DELAY TIME: The delay time can be set within the range of 0 to 300 ms only in the matrix mode. SW ATT: This is the parameter for reducing the level of the subwoofer channel when playing in the EXT. IN input mode. Depending on the player you are using, the subwoofer channel's playback level may seem too high. If so, set "SW ATT" to "ON". For DENON players, use with the default settings ("OFF"). Subwoofer ON/OFF: The subwoofer output can be controlled directly.
