Dolby Pro Logic

Dolby Pro Logic is a specially encoded 2 channel surround format designed to provide theater- like surround sound from Dolby Surround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc

software marked ). This AV CONTROL CENTER is equipped with a Dolby Pro Logic surround decoder to let you enjoy the wide variety of currently available Dolby Surround home video software.

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.

DSP mode

The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall to PCM or analog of program source. These modes are particularly effective when used with stereo program sources, like CD, television, and FM radio. You might enjoy trying the ARENA, THEATER, JAZZ CLUB mode the next time you watch a concert or sporting event!

DVD 6-channel INPUT mode

Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels and the receiver, you can enjoy multi-channel encoded DVD source material in all its splendor. Since the source signals are digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting sound quality, sense of spaciousness, and dynamic range are superb.
