C-V351/C-V301 (EN)

This AV CONTROL CENTER incorporates 3 different sound modes to let you enjoy surround sound with a wide variety of

34 program sources. The Dolby Pro Logic surround sound let you enjoy theater-like surround effects when you play Dolby Pro Logic program sources (like Laserdiscs and DVDs). Dolby 3 Stereo creates a panoramic frontal sound field. The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) modes let you create a variety of different sonic environments from almost any type of program source.

To obtain the best possible surround sound, be sure to complete "Setup for surround play" before using the surround modes.

Dolby 3 Stereo

Dolby 3 Stereo is available for systems that do not have surround speakers. When in the Dolby 3 Stereo mode the surround information is redirected to the front left and right speakers. This mode is designed for use with Dolby Surround program sources, but can also improve sound field unity for programs that are not Dolby Surround encoded. Dialog positioning and sound image definition, however, may not be as accurate when used with programs that are not Dolby Surround encoded.

* Optional in this mode.
