Hooking Up and Setting Up the Speaker System
Dolby Surround Setup
Dolby Pro Logic Surround is a system for decoding
Dolby Surround sound that is standardized for TV
programs and movies. By selecting the proper center
mode and adjusting the speaker volume (see this page
and page 13), you can reproduce highly precise
localization and dynamic panning of sounds of Dolby Pro
Logic Surround-encoded software.
To obtain the best possible surround effect, you will
require at least one additional pair of speakers and/or a
center speaker.
