When the MUSIC 1 Surround Mode is selected and a
two channel audio signal is processed in the Dolby Pro
Logic IIx Mode, the Trim Select Effect Mode provides vari-
able Center Channel Width Adjustment. Likewise, with the
MUSIC 2 Surround Mode selected and a two channel audio
signal is processed in the DTS NEO:6 Mode, the Trim Se-
lect Effect Mode also provides variable Center Channel
Width Adjustment.
If MUSIC 3 or 4 Surround Modes are selected the Trim
Select Effect Mode provides variable Reverberation of the
sound going to the Surround Loudspeakers.
Loudness
The Loudness Control Function automatically increases
bass response as the volume level is lowered for improved
listening at softer volume levels. The amount of Loudness
Boost is adjustable in 10% increments from 10% to 100%.
The maximum Loudness boost is 18dB, less any bass boost
that may have been previously set by the Bass Trim func-
tion. For example if the Bass is boosted 10dB, the maxi-
mum additional Loudness boost will be 18dB less 10dB or
8dB. Refer to figure 43.
1. Rotate the TRIM SELECT Control clockwise to the
EFFECT position. The word TRIMLOUD will appear
