Using Advanced Sound Options
Your receiver has four special sound options: Dolby Pro Logic Surround, Dolby
3CH Logic, DSP Effect, and Dolby Virtual. These special options enhance the
sound from a connected program source.
Notes:
• To get the full benefit from programs encoded with Dolby Surround
Sound, you need a stereo VCR or DVD/LD player.
• 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 turn on Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby 3CH Logic, press
PRO LOGIC
on
the remote control until
PRO LOGIC
,
THEATER 1
, or
THEATER
2
appears on
the display, then press

followed by
CENTER MODE
to select

,
PHANTOM
, or

. See “Sound Mode Adjustments (Remote
Control Only)” on Page 22 for information about each of these options.

this feature on or off. To turn on a DSP effect, press
DSP MODE
until the desired
option (see below) 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
appropriate speakers, making you feel like you are really there.
Pro Logic
is
the standard.
Dolby 3CH Logic
Dolby 3CH Logic produces a more spacious sound field than is possible with
ordinary stereo playback by sending the rear channel’s sound to the front left
and right speakers. Select
3chLOGIC
when you play a Dolby Surround Sound
program and do not have rear speakers.
Dolby Virtual
Dolby Virtual lets you enjoy programs encoded with Dolby Surround while using
only two front speakers.

HALL
,
JAZZ
,
DANCE
,
THEATER

,
or
THEATER

gives the effect of a discotheque. Both theater modes provide the effect of a
movie theater. THEATER 1 sounds like a large movie theater. THEATER 2
seems like a smaller theater. Try each setting to find the best effect for your pro
