separation between the left, center, and right channels. The center channel audio will still
be heard from the televisions center speaker.
SURROUND
The following surround settings will reproduce the "live" sound you would hear in
concert halls, sports stadiums, movie theaters, etc. when you set up your speaker
system as shown in the section on rear panel connections on pages 13-15. The
surround sound system is most effective with movie and other stereo material that is
Dolby Surround encoded, and played on a stereo VCR.
When using Wireless Mode (TRANSMITTER OUT jacks on rear panel), rear mode must
be chosen to receive the Surround audio program.
To enter the SURROUND MODE, use the CURSOR buttons to select SURROUND
MODE or you can also press the SRD button on your remote control.
Use the CURSOR buttons to select surround setting and to select and adjust the
volume of front and rear speakers. Front volume also controls AUDIO TO HI-FI. Adjust
front volume first.
Each surround setting has separate front & rear volume controls, except OFF and Dolby
3CH which have no rear volume controls. DOLBY PROLOGIC also has a center
volume.
The CENTER and REAR VOLUME will increase or decrease when FRONT VOLUME is
adjusted to keep an equal balance between the surround channels.
The maximum volume allowed for the CENTER and REAR will depend on how loud the
FRONT volume is set.
The FRONT volume is the same as the main TV volume.
SURROUND OFF
Use this for normal stereo/mono broadcasts.
