Advanced Sound Control

Sound Enhancement Systems

This receiver is equipped with several built-in sound enhancement systems.

Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby 3 Stereo

This surround system reproduces theater-like sur- round sound from Dolby-encoded software. The Pro Logic mode uses the built-in circuit to steer the Left, Center, Right and Surround channel audio signals and uses all five speakers and an optional subwoofer to play decoded Dolby Pro Logic program source, such as TV and VCR.

The 3 Stereo mode will redirect the Surround signals to the front left and right speakers when only the front and center speakers are used.

Use this mode to suit your speaker system configura- tions (such as size and number of speakers) and type of program (such as VCR).

Dolby Digital	EN
The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital

surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides better sound quality and more powerful presence than conven- tional Dolby Surround.

This unit is equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel so that you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround sound. Being different from Dolby Pro Logic in which only four channels ( Front Left, Front Right, Centre and Rear ) are used, the new system provides stereo separation of the rear speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-Left ). These 5 channels, together with the subwoofer channel for bass sounds ( counted as 0.1 channel ), constitute as 5.1-Channel ( or 6 Channels ) Input for Dolby Digital that brings you the most sophisticated sound enjoyment.
