LISTENING MODE
Dolby Digital (AC-3) Mode
Dolby Digital (also known as AC-3 or Dolby 5.1) surround sound system
delivers a realistic and dynamic sound similar to the latest movie theaters. All
five speakers and subwoofer must be connected for correct Dolby Digital
Surround Sound reproduction. Each channel plays its own unique role in
providing the proper sound. Front left, center and front right speakers join rear
left and rear right to reproduce high, mid and bass frequencies in seperate five
full-range channels of surround sound. Bass rumble, explosions and low
frequency effects you feel are heard through the subwoofer. Most DVD movie
discs have been recorded in Dolby Digital surround sound mode. This set will
automatically select the correct Dolby mode according to source provided.

Press the SOURCE button on the front panel of the main unit repeatedly to
select one of the input source, or press the DVD, TUNER, GAME, TV/VCR
or AUX button on the REMOTE to select your required audio input source
directly. The corresponding indicator will light.
NOTE: This set will decode and automatically play back whatever
sound system was recorded on the DVD or audio disc. For a
Dolby Digital or a DTS (5.1 channel) recorded DVD disc, the
blue MULTI CHANNEL DECODING indicator will be on and sound
will come out of 5 speakers plus the subwoofer. For a Stereo DVD
disc (2 channel) or other stereo audio source, the red STEREO
indicator will be on, and the sound will only come out of the 2
front speakers plus the subwoofer. To manually change a
stereo (2 channel) disc to Dolby Pro Logic, press the
SURROUND button. The sound will come out of all 5 speakers
plus the subwoofer.

Press the SURROUND button on the REMOTE control to select 5.1
channel sound format. Press the STEREO button to select the stereo mode.
NOTE: If the input signal is Dolby Digital sound format, then two listening
modes can be selected: Dolby Digital or STEREO. Try each to
see what you prefer. Some programs may sound better in the
STEREO mode.
When you are playing your set in MULTI CHANNEL
DECODING mode, if you plug your stereo
headphones into the phones jack, the set will turn to
STEREO mode automatically (the STEREO
indicator on the front panel will light), and you can
hear the 2 channel stereo sound coming out of your
stereo headphones, no sound will be heard from the 6
speakers (there may be a 2 second delay for the
circuits to detect and change to headphone use).
