Advanced Sound Control

Sound Enhancement Systems

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

Dolby Pro Logic

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.

Dolby Digital

The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital	EN
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.
