SURROUND SOUND
This receiver incorporates a sophisticated Digital Signal Processor that allows you to create optimum sound quality and sound atmosphere in your personal Home Theater.
Surround modes
This unit has 5 different surround modes to allow you to enjoy surround sound with various program sources: DOLBY DIGITAL(AC-3), DOLBY PRO LOGIC, THEATER, HALL 1, HALL 2. DOLBY DIGITAL(AC-3) : Allows you to enjoy up to 5. 1 channels of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital(AC-3) program sources bearing the " DOLBY " trademark such as laser DIGITAL discs. Dolby Digital(AC-3) provides better sound quality, improved dynamic range and great sense of direction, compared with conventional Dolby surround. DOLBY PRO LOGIC : This unit incorporates the Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder which has the same functions for playback as movie theaters and gives a theater- like experience in your home, naturally reproducing the audio sound field. Use with Dolby Pro Logic program sources bearing the " DOLBY SURROUND " trademark such as video cassette tapes or laser discs. "Dolby", "Pro Logic" and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories. THEATER : This mode provides the effect of being in a movie theater when watching a movie source that has a stereo sound track. HALL 1 : This mode provides the ambience of a concert hall for classical music sources such as orchestral, chamber music or an instrumental solo. For music sources like a rock concert, you will feel as if you were actually at the live concert. When the 6 CH DIRECT INPUTS are connected to a 6 CH decoder for surround sound such as Dolby Digital(AC-3) or DTS, etc. , you can enjoy the corresponding surround sound, too. (For details, see the operator's manual of the component to be connected. ) "DTS" and DTS Digital Surround are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.
Delay time
When the center speaker or the rear speakers is(are) closer to the listener than the front speakers, the sound from the center speaker or the rear speakers can arrive at the listener's ear earlier than the sound from the front speakers. For audible improvement, the sound from center speaker can be delayed with the center delay time setting so that the sound from the front and the center speakers will be heard at the same time and the sound from the rear speakers can be also delayed with the rear delay time setting so that the sound from the front and the rear speakers will be heard at the same time. The optimum delay time will be different according to the room size and the acoustic properties. It is recommended that you try different times to obtain the best effect. It is adjustable in the surround modes except for the normal stereo mode. (For details, refer to "In the surround modes except for the normal stereo mode, adjusting delay times of the speakers" on page 17)

Speaker placement ENGLISH
To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows; Front speakers: Place each front speaker about 1m (40 ) from the TV set. Center speaker: Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure good visualization of center channel program. Rear speakers: Place the rear speakers approximately 1m above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind. However, if you don't have a center speaker, a subwoofer or rear speakers, select the best possible surround mode with the available speakers. To enjoy the surround sound best, the speakers to be connected are as follows;
Modes Dolby Digital(AC-3) Dolby Pro Logic Other Surround
FRONT LEFT SUB WOOFER TV set CENTER SPEAKER FRONT RIGHT
Front Center Rear Subwoofer
Yes Yes Yes Yes
Yes Yes Yes Optional
Yes Optional Yes Optional
Stereo Yes Optional
6 CH DIRECT Yes Yes Yes Yes
REAR LEFT
REAR RIGHT
If a DTS Decoder is connected to the 6 CH DIRECT INPUTS, the most accurate reproduction requires that front, center and surround speakers all be full range speakers. Note:To avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded center and front speakers.
ENJOYING SURROUND SOUND
Surround sound effect 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. When selecting the Dolby Surround mode.
