Using Dolby Pro Logic II (Dolby PLII)

Pro Logic processing can be applied to the music signals recorded in 2- channel stereo. This gives normal 2-channel stereo a more live, concert hall effect. When you select “Music,” you can adjust the center width.

This function provides the optimum vocal localization by adjusting the center channel localization in between the center speaker and the L/R speakers. (Initial setting: “Music”)
