wider stereo effect with vocals.

channel sent to front right and left
speakers) to 10 (center channel sent
to the center speaker only).
Sets the effect level for the currently
selected Advanced Surround mode
(each mode can be set separately).
Creates a wider dynamic range with
digital sources like CDs or DVDs.
May improve the quality of sound in a
noisy source (for example, cassette
or video tape with lots of background
noise) when switched on.
Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks
should be played. Dual mono is not
widely used, but is sometimes
necessary when two languages need
to be sent to separate channels.
Specifies the amount of dynamic
range adjustment to Dolby Digital
and DTS movie soundtracks (you

channel to make it stand out from
other background sounds in a TV or
movie soundtrack.

maximizing the dynamic range
(during digital processing).
Some monitors have a slight delay
when showing video, so the
soundtrack will be slightly out of sync
with the picture. By adding a bit of
delay, you can adjust the sound to
match the presentation of the video.

audio signal out of this receiver (amp)
or through to a TV or plasma display.
