In addition to Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic II and powerful output of 80 watts per channel, the versatile AVR-1802 A/V
receiver gives you 1 set of video, audio, and digital optical input terminals on the front panel where you can conveniently
connect your home video camera. Dolby Pro Logic II lets you enjoy existing Dolby Surround programs and conventional stereo
sources such as CD or your home video sound track in the exciting ambience of 5.1 channels. The AVR-1802 also
provides a Virtual Surround mode that recreates the sensation of surround sound if your system has only two front speakers.

Dolby Pro Logic II Decoder
Enjoy 2-channel stereo recordings in stunning 5.1-channel surround
playback.
The Dolby Pro Logic II decoder reproduces dynamic 5.1-channel surround
sound not only from normal 5.1-channel DVD but from 2-channel
sources such as videos and CDs, too. Dolby Pro Logic II uses matrix
decoding technology that has been dramatically improved over Pro
Logic. With Pro Logic II, for instance, the Surround (Rear) channels are
in stereo (only mono with Pro Logic) and playback covers the full frequency
range (only up to 7 kHz with Pro Logic). These improvements let you
enjoy a wide variety of 2-channel sources with the exciting effects of 5.1-
channel surround sound.
■
Dolby Digital and DTS Decoders
Equipped with both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel decoding, the
AVR-1802 provides thrilling surround sound with the thousands of
Dolby Digital and DTS encoded DVDs, as well as the growing library of
DTS 5.1 channel music recordings available on CD.
■
Cinema Equalizer
The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other
formats emphasizes correction of components that deteriorate in the
high-frequency range due to a theater’s front speakers being placed
behind the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater
without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong. The AVR-1602
features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these high-frequency components
so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. (For Dolby Digital,
Dolby Pro Logic II, and DTS surround modes)
