Setting up surround mode
What are surround modes?
You can experience true home-theater sound with your new system. This system incorporates several listen modes to let you
enjoy surround sound with a wide variety of program sources. Each produces multiple channels of surround-sound, but each
does it differently.
● Dolby Digital : Dolby Digital uses an encode/decode process based on its theatrical digital surround sound technology. The five main
channels are full-frequency and independent, so sound can completely envelop you or soar anywhere in the room, just like at the movies.
(only for XD-DV90 and XD-DV80)
Compared with Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital has more clarity, greater surround envelopment, and more realistic sound movement between
channels.
● Dolby Pro Logic: Dolby Pro Logic is a decoding process which provides theater-like surround sound from Dolby Surround encoded sources
(such as videotape and LaserDisc software that are marked with the Dolby Surround logo). It offers excellent sound movement across the
front of the room and a surround ambiance that seems to immerse you in a movie. Your system is equipped with a Dolby Pro Logic surround
decoder to let you enjoy the wide variety of currently available Dolby Surround home video software. (only for XD-DV90 and XD-DV80)
