◊Surround

•Off: No surround effects (default).

•Simulated Stereo: The TV creates a simulated stereo effect when watching a non-stereo program.

•Surround Sound: The TV creates a simulated surround effect when watching a stereo program.

◊Level Sound

When on, automatically equalizes the volume level when there are significant sound-level differences between program segments, such as between regular programming and commercials.

•To receive the best fidelity with music programs, change this setting to Off.

•When connecting to an A/V receiver, set Level Sound to Off and turn off the TV speakers to send full dynamics to the A/V receiver.

Analog-Only Audio Settings

You can set analog-only audio settings while viewing either analog or digital sources, but the settings affect only broadcast analog content.

◊Listen To

Determines how your TV receives a broadcast audio signal and plays the sound you hear.

Your choices are:

•Stereo: Default setting. The TV plays stereo broadcasts in stereo and mono broadcasts in mono. The word Stereo is displayed when you tune to a channel broadcasting in stereo.

•SAP (Second Audio Program): Additional mon- aural sound track that you cannot hear during normal TV viewing. The SAP signal might be related to the program you are watching, (such as a sound track in a foreign language), or it might be unrelated (such as a weather report). If an SAP signal is broadcast, the letters SAP are displayed when you tune to the channel.

•Mono: Reduces background noise. Use when receiving a weak stereo audio signal. All audio is played mono with this setting.

Listen To is not available for devices connected to the INPUT, COMPONENT or HDMI jacks.

•Bright: Suited for most daytime viewing.

•Brilliant: The default setting. For use under strong light.
