Surround modes

“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered
trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories. “DOLBY”,
“Pro Logic” and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby
Laboratories.

Dolby Digital

The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels
of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program sources (such

as Laserdisc or DVD software marked

). Compared with

previous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides even better sound
quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.

Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surround
left and right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel Dolby
Digital surround sound, this model lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and
Dolby Surround) program sources, even if you connect only the front
speakers.

Although only Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate low
frequency channel, connecting a subwoofer will also improve deep
bass performance in the other surround modes.

Dolby Digital has a “.1” or “LFE” channel.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.

Dolby PRO LOGIC

II

Dolby Pro Logic II was designed specifically to provide a new sense
of spatiality, directionality and articulation of sounds from Dolby
Surround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc software
marked

). This is achieved with an intelligent, built-in

feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding and the decoding
of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs. The PRO LOGIC II modes
programmed into this model are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC” and “PRO
LOGIC”. The “MOVIE” mode of the PRO LOGIC II has preset
characteristics to produce a calibrated, high-level surround sound
playback while the “MUSIC” mode has user-adjustable characteristics
to offer the three optional controls, like “Dimension”, “Center
Width” and “Panorama” modes to allow optimization of the
soundfields as desired. The “Dimension” control allows the user to
gradually adjust the soundfield either towards the front or towards
the rear; the “Center Width” control allows various adjustment of the
left-center-right speakers’ balance; the “Panorama” extends the
front stereo image to include the surround speakers for an exciting
“wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.

bass sound effects.
