the actual hall, etc. Thus you may notice variations in the strength of the reflections coming from the front, back, left and right.
• Feel free to choose a sotmd field program based on your listening preference, and not purely on the name of the program itselfi
You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked "MULTI"
