• Designed for playback of stereo and matrix-encoded sources.

• Uses proprietary algorithms to move the stereo image outward

from the front speakers, producing a wider stereo field with

greater depth.

• Depends on proper location of the primary listening position

and front speakers. When the front speakers are positioned

close to either side of the display device, the effect is produced

over a wider area than when the front speakers are positioned
