Getting the most out of Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound

MENU

EXECUTE

CURSOR >/./?//

To obtain the best possible Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound, you need to adjust the delay time. The center mode and speaker levels were set in EASY SET UP, so you don’t have to change those settings unless you change the speaker configuration.

If you change the speaker configuration, see “Reconfiguring the PROLOGIC and THEATER sound fields” on page 82.

Adjusting the delay time

You can make the surround sound more effective by delaying the output from the rear speakers (delay time) relative to the front speakers. You don’t have to adjust the delay time if you select 3CH LOGIC for

CENTER MODE.
