LISTENING MODE DESCRIPTIONS
The following table provides a brief description of each listening mode.
Logic 7 Film   
Logic 7 MusicA proprietary Lexicon technology, Logic 7 is an advanced mode that extracts the maximum surround information from either surround-encoded pro-
grams or conventional stereo material. Film 7.1 and Music 7.1 are tailored specifically for use with rear speakers, while Film 5.1 and Music 5.1 are spe-
cifically formatted for use without rear speakers.  The Film modes should be used with any source that contains Dolby Surround or similar matrix
encoding to experience increased center channel intelligibility and more accurate placement of sounds with fades and pans.  The Music modes
enhance the listening experience by presenting a wider front soundstage and greater rear ambience.  Both Logic 7 modes also direct low-frequency
information to the subwoofer (if installed and configured) to deliver maximum bass impact.  Logic 7 adds additional bass enhancement that circulates
low frequencies in the 40 Hz to 120 Hz range to the front and surround speakers to deliver a less localized soundstage that seems broader and wider
than when the subwoofer is the sole source of bass energy.
Note: Logic 7 Film is designed for use with a center channel.  If your speaker system does not have a center channel, then use Logic 7 Music.
Dolby Digital
Available only with digital input sources encoded with Dolby Digital data.  It provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated
low-frequency effects channel. This mode does not use the rear speakers.
Dolby Digital EX
Available when the receiver is configured for 7.1-channel operation, Dolby Digital EX is an extended version of Dolby Digital.  When used with movies
or other programs that have special encoding, Dolby Digital EX reproduces specially-encoded soundtracks so that a full 7.1 sound field is available.
Even if a source does not contain specific EX encoding, the special algorithm may be used to derive a 7.1-channel output. 
Dolby Pro Logic II    
   Film
   Music
   Game
   Pro LogicDolby Pro Logic II decodes full-range, discrete, left, center, right, right surround, and left surround channels from matrix surround-encoded programs
and conventional stereo sources.  The Dolby Pro Logic II Film mode is optimized for movie soundtracks, while the Pro Logic II Music mode should be
used with musical selections. The Pro Logic II Game mode is designed to enhance the soundtrack of video games for either dedicated consoles or
computers.  The Pro Logic mode re-creates the original Pro Logic processing for those who prefer that presentation format.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx   
   Film
   Music
   GameDolby Pro Logic IIx is the latest extension of Dolby Laboratory’s benchmark matrix surround technology, which creates a discrete 7.1 sound field from
matrix surround or two-channel stereo sources when your system is configured for surround back speakers. Film, Music, and Game versions are
available that customize the processing to the type of source in use.  These modes may also be used to create 7.1 sound fields from 5.1 digital
soundtracks.
Dolby Virtual Speaker    
   Reference
   WideDolby Virtual Speaker technology uses a next-generation advanced algorithm to reproduce the dynamics and surround sound effects of a precisely
placed 5.1-channel speaker system using only front left and right speakers. In the Reference mode, the apparent width of the sound across the front
image is defined by the distance between the two speakers.  The Wide mode provides a wider, more spacious front image when the two speakers are
close together.  Depending upon the number of speakers available in your system, a variety of different sound field options are available for both the
Reference and Wide modes.
DTS 5.1
When the speaker configuration is set for 5.1-channel operation, the DTS 5.1 mode is available when DVD, audio-only music, or laser discs encoded
with DTS data are played.  DTS 5.1 provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency effects channel.
DTS-ES 6.1 Matrix   
DTS-ES 6.1 DiscreteWhen the speaker configuration is set for 7.1-channel operation, playback of a DTS-encoded program source will automatically trigger the selection of
one of the two DTS-ES modes.  Newer discs with special DTS-ES Discrete-encoding will be decoded to provide six discrete, full-bandwidth channels
plus a separate low-frequency effects channel.  All other DTS discs will be decoded using the DTS-ES Matrix mode, which creates a 6.1-channel sound
field from the original 5.1-channel soundtrack. 
						

							SetupLexicon
3-28
DTS Neo:6 Cinema
DTS Neo:6 MusicThese two modes are available when any analog source is playing to create a three-channel, five-channel, or six-channel surround presentation from
conventional Matrix-encoded and traditional Stereo sources.  Select the Cinema version of the Neo:6 when a program with any type of Matrix
surround encoding is present.  Select the Music version of Neo:6 for optimal processing when a non-encoded, two-channel stereo program is being
played.
DTS Neo:6
The DTS Neo:6 mode is designed for use with matrix-encoded digital signals. This mode is available when Digital DTS 96/24, DTS 5.1, and DTS 20-bit
5.1 CH CD data streams are active. DTS Neo:6 derives six channels when both side and rear speakers are present (rear speakers will be in parallel). It
derives five channels when only side speakers are present.
DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 is available on specially-encoded (and labeled) optical discs that offer five channels of audio with a 96kHz sampling rate that delivers greatly
improved audio performance.  When a DTS 96/24 disc is in use and the player is connected with a digital link, the mode is selected automatically.
Hall 1 & Hall 2
The Hall modes, for both 5-channel and 7-channel systems, create sound fields that resemble a small-(Hall 1) or medium-sized (Hall 2) concert hall.
5-Channel Stereo
7-Channel StereoThis mode takes advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room. Ideal for playing music in situations such
as a party, it places the same signal at the front-left and surround-left, and front-right and surround-right speakers.  The center channel is fed a summed
mono mix of the in-phase material of the left and right channels. If the RV-5 has been configured for 6.1-/7.1-channel operation, both of these options
are available for selection. If the RV-5 has been configured for 5.1-channel operation, only the 5-Channel Stereo option is available.
2-Channel Stereo
This mode turns off all surround processing and presents pure left- and right-channel stereo programs.  The bass management processing that routes
low frequencies to the subwoofers is still active.
2-Channel Stereo 
BypassThis mode turns off all surround processing and present pure left- and right-channel stereo programs.  The bass management processing that routes
low frequencies to the subwoofers is still active.  This mode does not allow any user modification of the audio, such as Bass or Treble adjustments.  
Note: This mode is only available when the Tone Controls are set to OFF.

5.1-CHANNEL & 7.1-CHANNEL DIRECT INPUTS
There are four listening modes available for use with surround
sources such as DVD-Audio, SACD, HD-DVD, or Blue-ray players.
These listening modes are for use when the RV-5 8-channel direct
inputs are in use. We recommend you use these listening modes
under the following conditions:
 5.1-CH BYPASS - Use this listening mode when the Rear L/R
inputs are NOT in use and the input source device has its own
internal bass management system. The incoming audio stream
passes from the source directly through to the volume control
without any analog-to-digital conversion. This mode also mutes
the unusued input jacks to prevent unwanted noise from
interfering with system performance.
 5-CHANNEL - Use this listening mode when the input source
device does NOT have its own internal bass management
system. In this mode, the analog source is converted to digital
so that it uses the same bass management options for the direct
input as used for all other inputs. If all eight channel direct
inputs are in use, then audio from the REAR L/R inputs will be
redirected to the side speakers.
 7.1-CH BYPASS - Use this listening mode when the 8-channel
direct inputs are in use and the input source device has its own
internal bass management system. The incoming audio stream
passes from the source directly through to the volume control
without any analog-to-digital conversion. 
 7-CHANNEL - Use this listening mode when the 8-channel
direct inputs are in use and the input source device does NOT
have its own internal bass management system. In this mode,
the analog source is converted to digital so that it uses the same
bass management options for the direct input as used for all
other inputs. 
DTS & DOLBY STATUS DISPLAYS
The upper right-hand corner of the front panel 2-line display may
indicate status information regarding the incoming source.  If a
Dolby or DTS source is input and the RV-5 is configured to a
surround system, the following status indicators may be displayed
to indicate the state of the incoming source:
coded DTS signal, discrete or
matrix, is input to the surround back channels. “ON” indicates
that the condition exists, or is active; “OF” indicates that the
condition does not exist, or is off.
 DS-ON: Indicates when the input signal is encoded with Dolby
Surround under the Dolby 2.0 standard. “ON” indicates that
the condition exists, or is active; “OF” indicates that the
condition does not exist, or is off.
rround EX is input with the
digital stream, if a surround channel (3/2 or 2/2) exists. “ON”
indicates that the condition exists, or is active; “OF” indicates
that the condition does not exist, or is off.

SURROUND CONFIGURATION
Selecting the SETUP menu SURROUND CONFIG option opens the Surround Configuration menu, which is used to customize the list of available
listening modes that can be applied to incoming signals.  Each Mode Family has a subset of available listening modes that can be turned off.  If the
listening mode is set to OFF, then the applicable listening modes in that family are not available for selection from the mode buttons.  If the listening
mode is ON, then the applicable listening modes in that family are available for selection. 
These are not input-specific settings; if a Mode Family option is turned off, it is removed from the list of available listening modes for ALL inputs, and
regardless of the incoming data stream. Some modes, such as Dolby Digital, DTS, and the Stereo modes in the PCM menus, cannot be excluded
from the mode selections.
Note: The Logic 7 Default parameter is the one exception in the Surround Configuration menu - this parameter has different functionality, as described on the
following page.

LOGIC 7 DEFAULTOFF, ON
Allows the user to choose Logic 7 as the default surround mode for
all incoming audio signals.  If this parameter is OFF, then the RV-5
selects the native format of the incoming signal as the default
listening mode. If set to ON, then all incoming audio signals are
defaulted to the Logic 7 listening modes. 
Setting the Logic 7 Default to ON does not prevent other listening
modes from being available through the Mode buttons.  Selecting
the DOLBY, DTS, DSP, or STER soft button on the remote control
switches the Mode menu selections to any listening modes available
for those families.
Note: The Logic 7 Default is the only menu item in the Surround Config
menu that has different functionality.

DOLBY CONFIGURATION
Selecting the SETUP menu DOLBY CONFIG option opens the Dolby Configuration menu, which is used to configure the Dolby surround modes for
optimum performance. 
Note: The Dolby Configuration only applies to the Dolby PLII Music and 
Dolby PLIIx Music listening modes. The Dolby Pro Logic IIx mode requires 
a 7.1-channel configured system.
MODEPLII, PLIIx
Selects the MODE parameter, which chooses between the Dolby PLII 
Music and Dolby PLIIx Music listening modes.
CENTER WIDTH0 TO 7
Adjusts the balance of the vocal information in the front soundstage
between the center and front left/right speakers. The higher settings
spread the center channel sound more broadly into the left and right
channels while a lower number produces a tigher center channel
presentation. The Center Width range is 0 to 7 in single increments.
DIMENSIONR-1, R-2, R-3, O, F-1, F-2, F-3
Alters the perceived depth of the surround field by creating a
shallower presentation (F-1 to F-3) that appears to move the center
of the sound field towards the front of the room or a deeper
presentation (R-1 to R-3) that appears to move the sound field
towards the rear of the room.
PANORAMAOFF, ON
Appears to increase the sound presentation along the sides of the
room by extending the stereo image to include surround channel
signals, which enhances the sense of surround sound by creating a
“wraparound” effect with side wall imaging. 
NIGHTOFF, MID, MAX
Adjusts the audio settings for Night mode.  The Night mode uses
special processing to preserve the dynamic range and full intelligibility
of a movie soundtrack while reducing the peak level.  This prevents
abruptly loud transitions from disturbing others, without reducing the
sonic impact of a digital source. Use the MID setting for mild
compression and the MAX setting for more severe compression.

Zone and Zone 2 audio outputs.
MAIN ZONEFULL, -10, -20, -30, -40dB
Allows you to choose different levels of attenuation for Main Zone
audio muting.  The FULL setting completely mutes the box.  The
other available settings perform incremental muting.  
ZONE 2FULL, -10, -20, -30, -40dB
Allows you to choose different levels of attenuation for Zone 2 audio
muting. The FULL setting completely mutes the box.  The other
available settings perform incremental muting.  
POWER ON SETTINGS
Selecting the SETUP menu POWER ON SETTINGS option opens the
Power On Settings menu, which provides user preferences to the
Power On Volume and Dock Auto Power settings.
POWER ON VOLLAST, -80dB TO -10dB
Identifies the starting volume level when the RV-5 is powered on.
The Last parameter sets the volume to the same volume that existed
when the unit was put into Standby or powered off from the rear
panel switch. The Power On Volume can be set from –80dB to –10dB
in 1dB increments.
DOCK AUTO POWEROFF, ON
If the Dock Auto Power parameter is set to ON, then if an iPod is
playing when plugged into the Dock, it will take the RV-5 out of
Standby mode and select the Dock input.  If the Dock Auto Power
parameter is set to OFF, then the RV-5 does not respond when a
running iPod is plugged into the Dock. For more information about
the Dock input, refer to Section 5: Tuner, PC, & Dock Controls.
Note: If the Main Zone is OFF when the RV-5 is put into Standby, when
the iPod is plugged into the Dock, the RV-5 will power up but the Main
Zone will remain OFF.  The user will need to manually select the DOCK
input at that point.
