Using Advanced Sound Options
Your receiver has three special sound options: Dolby Pro Logic Surround, SFC
Effects, and 5-D Theater. These special options enhance the sound you hear
from a program source.
Notes:
• To get the full benefit from programs encoded with Dolby Surround
Sound, you need a stereo VCR.
• Dolby Surround does not operate correctly if the signal passes through a
graphic equalizer. If you connected an equalizer to the
TAPE 2 MONITOR
jacks, do not select
TAPE 2 MONITOR
when you listen to Dolby Surround
signals.
To activate Dolby Pro Logic Surround, press
DOLBY PRO LOGIC
(or
PRO LOGIC
on
the remote control). For Dolby 3CH Logic, repeatedly press the remote control’s
CENTER MODE
button until
3CHLOGIC
appears on the display. For SFC effects
or 5 D Theater, press
SFC MODE
or
5-D THEATER
until the desired option appears
on the display.
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
Dolby Pro Logic Surround puts you in the middle of the action. The center- and
rear-channel speakers add incredible realism by directing the sound to the ap-
propriate speakers, making you feel like you are really there. You can find hun-
dreds of movies, television shows, and compact discs produced with Dolby
Surround.
Dolby 3CH Logic
Dolby 3CH Logic produces a more spacious sound field than is possible with or
-
dinary stereo playback by combining the front and rear speaker sounds. Select
this mode when you play a Dolby Surround Sound program and do not have
rear speakers. The rear channel’s sound is sent to the front left and right speak
-
ers.
SFC Effects
You can choose one of four SFC effects—
HALL
,
JAZZ
,
STUDIO
, or
ARENA
.
Hall Effect simulates a large concert hall, best suited for classical music. Jazz
Effect provides the acoustic effects generally heard in jazz clubs. Studio Effect
gives the effect of listening in a recording studio. Arena Effect is ideal for sourc-
es such as live performances. Try each setting and find the best effect for the
programs you want to listen.
5-D Theater
5-D Theater provides clearer and more dynamic sound effects by outputting au
-
dio signals through the rear channel to simulate the stereo sound, compared
with a standard surround system which provides only monaural signals to the
rear speakers. Select
5-D PRO
for sources encoded with Dolby Pro Logic, or
select
5-D
SURR.
for normal stereo sources.
Note:
5-D Theater Surround (
5-D SURR.
) produces stereo sound from the
front speakers, enhanced with simulated surround sound from the rear speak-
ers. The center channel does not operate.
