The center channel audio will still be heard from the televisions center speaker.

SURROUND

The following surround settings will reproduce the "live" sound you would hear in concert halls, sports stadiums, movie theaters, etc. when you set up your speaker system as shown in the section on rear panel connections on pages 13-15. The surround sound system is most effective with movie and other stereo material that is Dolby Surround encoded, and played on a stereo VCR.

When using Wireless Mode (TRANSMITTER OUT jacks on rear panel), rear mode must be chosen to receive the Surround audio program.

To enter the SURROUND MODE, use the CURSOR buttons to select SURROUND MODE or you can also press the SRD button on your remote control.

Use the CURSOR buttons to select surround setting and to select and adjust the volume of front and rear speakers. Front volume also controls AUDIO TO HI-FI. Adjust front volume first.

Each surround setting has separate front & rear volume controls, except OFF and Dolby 3CH which have no rear volume controls. DOLBY PROLOGIC also has a center volume.

The CENTER and REAR VOLUME will increase or decrease when FRONT VOLUME is adjusted to keep an equal balance between the surround channels.

The maximum volume allowed for the CENTER and REAR will depend on how loud the FRONT volume is set.

The FRONT volume is the same as the main TV volume.

SURROUND OFF

Use this for normal stereo/mono broadcasts.
