Dolby 3 Stereo
Dolby 3 Stereo is available for systems that do not have
surround speakers. When in the Dolby 3 Stereo mode,
the surround information is redirected to the front left
and right speakers. This mode is designed for use with
Dolby Surround program sources, but can also improve
sound field unity for programs that are not Dolby Sur-
round encoded. Dialog positioning and sound image
definition, however, may not be as accurate when used
with programs that are not Dolby Surround encoded.
VIRTUAL SURROUND
The surround signals of Dolby Digital and DTS have been
designed to provide a rich feeling of presence through
usually 5 loudspeakers.
The Virtual Surround feature incorporated in this unit
makes it possible to obtain a simulated surround effect
using the left and right front speakers alone.
