Bang & Olufsen BeoVision Avant Real Flat Version (1995-2005) - User Guide - Manual (Page 14)

14
If your BeoVision Avant is equipped
with a surround sound module, you
can extend your system into a fully
equipped Home Theatre system by
connecting four Bang & Olufsen
loudspeakers and a BeoLab 2
subwoofer*.
When you switch on one of your
sources in your BeoVision Avant, the
speakers which you may have in a
surround sound system can be cut in
or out, depending on what kind of
sound suits the source you are using.
BeoVision Avant may switch on a
speaker combination automatically.
This happens if a broadcasted
programme or DVD disc contains
information about the number of
speakers to be switched on. You are
still free to choose the speaker setup
you prefer.
You can also adjust the picture
dimensions to fill out the screen and
complete the Home Theatre
experience.
*NOTE! Refer to pages 9-12 in the Reference
book for more information about how to
connect loudspeakers to BeoVision Avant.
