Audyssey DSX™ Direct ■ Soundstage `-3dB to Reference to +3dB With this setting, you can adjust the soundstage when using Audyssey DSX™. Note • If the "Center" setting is set to "None", or both "Front High" and "Front Wide" settings are set to "None" (➔ 48), this setting cannot be selected. Theater-Dimensional ■ Listening Angle ` Wide: Select if the listening angle is greater than 30 degrees. ` Narrow: Select if the listening angle is less than 30 degrees. With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-Dimensional listening mode by specifying the angle of the front left and right speakers relative to the listening position. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be equidistant from the listening position and at an angle close to one of the two available settings. Front left speaker Front right speaker Listening angle: 30° ■ Analog Subwoofer ` Off: Analog audio signals (bass signals) are not output. ` On: Analog audio signals (bass signals) are output. This setting determines whether or not analog audio signals (bass signals) are output from front speakers when the Pure Audio or Direct listening mode is selected. Note • If the "Subwoofer" setting is set to "No" (➔ 48), this setting cannot be selected. ■ DSD DAC Direct ` Off: DSD signals are processed by the DSP. ` On: DSD signals are not processed by the DSP. This setting determines whether or not DSD (Super Audio CD) audio signals are passed through the DSP for A/V Sync, delay, etc., processing when the Pure Audio or Direct listening mode is selected. Note • Once you have selected "On", only DAC Direct will be available for selection. LFE Level ■ Dolby Digital*1, DTS*2, Multich PCM, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, DSD*3 `-2dB, -20dB, -10dB, or 0dB With these settings, you can set the level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effects) channel individually for each input sources.

The Dynamic EQ indicator will light (➔ 9). With Audyssey Dynamic EQ, you can enjoy great sound even when listening at low volume levels. Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio- rating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level - not just at reference level.
