RCA P46738 CRT Television User Manual


 
Your TV includes a feature called
SRS (O)* (Sound Retrieval System)
which brings dimensional realism to
both stereo and mono broadcasts.
When the SRS ON/OFF function is set
to ON and the STEREO/SAP function
is set to STEREO, your TV
electronically increases the audio
separation of the speakers so you can
perceive a more spacious stereo sound
effect. If a Stereo signal is not present,
you can set the SRS ON/OFF function
to its SYNTH STEREO setting to
synthesize and process the mono
signal.
When the SRS ON/OFF function is set
to ON, you can also change the next
menu item called SRS WIDTH between
NORMAL or ENHANCED. When this
function is set to ENHANCED, the
perceived audio separation will be
greater. Try both settings and select
the one you prefer for your room
acoustics.
Note: Some material (audio) will be
more affected than others.
SRS (0) allows you to hear multiple
sound sources. Audio frequencies are
processed to establish directional cues
which gives the impression that sound
is coming from all parts of the room.
External speakers are not required, but
the addition of high quality external
speakers optimizes the sound
performance of your 'IV.
