TV Virtual Surround Settings (TVS)

When you connect a stereo TV or 2 front speakers, TVS (TV Virtual Surround) lets you enjoy surround sound effects by using sound imaging to create virtual rear speakers from the sound of the front speakers (L: left,

R:right) without using actual rear speakers. TVS was developed by Sony to produce surround sound for home use using just a stereo TV.

**The letters in the program format display

mean the following sound component:

L:Front (left)

R:Front (right)

C:Center

LS: Rear (left)

RS: Rear (right)

S:Rear (monaural): The rear component of the Dolby Surround processed signal and

the Dolby Digital signal LFE: Low Frequency Effect signal

zHint

For Dolby Digital and DTS, “LFE” is always enclosed in a solid line regardless of the LFE signal component being output.

If “DTS” is set to “OFF” in “AUDIO SETUP” (page 95), the DTS track selection option will not appear on the screen even if the disc contains DTS tracks.
