DOLBY 3 STEREO : Choose this setting to play back movies and music (especially Laser Discs, video cassettes and TV broadcasts with DOLBY SURROUND sound) when not using the rear speakers. You get a clear perception of the position and direction of the sound.

DOLBY 3 STEREO combines the front and rear signals so that you can enjoy a regenerated sound field, which has comparatively more lively presence and a more expansive feeling from the three front channels (front left, front right and center speakers) than that of ordinary stereo regeneration.

OFF : Turns off the center and rear speakers for normal stereo operation.

Note : Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby 3 Stereo will not work properly if the signal passes through a graphic equalizer. Please refer to your equalizer operating instructions for guidance on switching off (or defeating) the equalizer.
