Step 2: Setting up the speakers

By connecting the supplied speakers, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound. Dolby Pro Logic Surround is a decoding system standardized in TV programs and movies. Dolby Pro Logic Surround improves the sound image by using four separate channels. These channels manipulate the sound to enhance the action as it happens on the screen.

Since the center speaker cannot produce enough bass, the bass sound of the center channel is output from the front speakers.
