RCA COLOR TV NCJ11 - Manual (Page 19)

ound Retrieval System - SRS (•)
Your TV includes a new feature
called SRS (•)* (Sound Retrieval
System) which brings dimensional
realism to both stereo and mono
broadcasts.
When the SRS ON/OFF function is
set to ON and the STEREOISAP
function is set to STEREO, your TV
electronically increases the audio
separation of the speakers so you can
perceive a more spacious stereo
sound effect. If a stereo signal is not
present, you can set the SRS
ON ¡OFF function to its SYNTH
STEREO setting to synthesize and
process the mono signal.
When the SRS ON/OFF function is
set to ON, you can also change the
next menu item called SRS WIDTH
between NORMAL or ENHANCE.
When this function is set to
ENHANCE, the perceived audio
separation will be greater. Try both
settings and select the one you prefer
for your room acoustics.
Note: Some material (audio) will be more
affected than others.
SRS (•) allows you to hear multiple
sound sources. Audio frequencies are
processed to establish directional
cues which gives the impression that
sound is coming from all parts of the
room. External speakers are not
required, but the addition of high
quality external speakers optimizes
the sound performance of your TV.

Aircraft Company, a division of GM Hughes Electronics.
