The Height Gain Control in Dolby Pro Logic IIz
enables the listener to select how much gain is
applied to the front high speakers. There are three
settings, “Low”, “Mid” and “High”, and the front high
speakers are accentuated in that order. While “Mid” is
the default listening setting, the listener may adjust
the Height Gain Control to their personal preference.
Note
• If the “Front High” settings is set to “None” (➔ page 65),
this setting cannot be selected.
■ Dolby EX
`Auto:
If the source signal contains a Dolby EX flag, the
Dolby EX or THX Surround EX listening mode is
used.
`Manual

You can select any available listening mode.
This setting determines how Dolby EX encoded
signals are handled. This setting is unavailable if no
surround back speakers are connected. This setting
is effective with Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and
Dolby TrueHD only.
Note
• If the “Surround Back” setting is set to “None”
(➔ page 65), this setting cannot be selected.

“Bi-Amp” or “Digital Crossover” while Powered Zone 2 is
enabled (➔ page 84), this setting cannot be selected.

(➔ page 65), this setting is fixed to “Manual”.

Dolby TrueHD sources is automatically fixed to “Off”.

DTS
■ Neo:X Music
Center Image
`0 to 2
to 5
The DTS Neo:X Music listening mode creates
11-channel surround sound from 2-channel stereo
sources. With this setting, you can specify by how
much the front left and right channel output is
attenuated in order to create the center channel.
Changing the value from “0” to “5” will spread the
sound of the center channel to left and right
(outwards).
Audyssey DSX
®
■ Soundstage
`–3dB to Reference
to +3dB
With this setting, you can adjust the sound stage when
using Audyssey DSX.
Note
• This listening mode can be selected only when all the
following conditions are satisfied:
–The center speaker is connected.
–Either the front high or front wide speakers are connected.
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.
Note
• For best results, we recommend setting “
Narrow” to 20°
and “Wide” to 40°.
