Remarks on Dolby PRO LOGIC ON/OFF
If the source is a 2-channel LPCM audio or a 2-channel Dolby Digital audio and you select SFC
effects that are most applicable for 5.1-channel audio (i.e., Musical, Drama, Action or 5D), we
recommend switching Dolby Pro Logic ON. On the other hand, when selecting SFC effects that
are intended for use with 2-channel audio (i.e., Jazz, Club, Hall or Theater), we recommend
switching Dolby Pro Logic OFF.
When playing a 2-channel mono source with PRO LOGIC switched ON, there are occasions
when the following will occur:
No audio is output if the center speaker setting is “ON” while no center speaker is installed.
Audio is heard only over the center speaker if installed and the center speaker setting is “ON”.
