Virtual Surround effects

Spatial

Selecting the Spatial Audio mode will give a widening of the sound. The sound will give the impression of coming from beyond the edges of the TV set.

Panorama

Selecting the Panorama mode gives not only a widening of the sound but also an amount of surround sound. Traditional surround systems give left, right, centre and surround channels, Panorama gives the sensation of these systems without the need for extra speakers.

Dolby

Selecting Dolby (Virtual Dolby) enables the listener to enjoy convincing surround sound from the two speakers in the TV.

After multichannel programme material is decoded by the integrated Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder, the surround signal is processed by a virtualiser and mixed back into the left and right channels. Playback over stereo speakers results in a phantom centre and a realistic surround image.

Dolby is not available through headphones.

Dolby is the abbreviation for Virtual Dolby Surround or Virtual Dolby Digital.
