Sennheiser DSP 360 - Manual (Page 11)

WELCOME TO THE VIRTUAL WORLD OF THE DSP-360
Thank you for deciding to buy a Sennheiser virtual sound system. Thanks to
this device you can participate in an electronic revolution allowing you to
enjoy high-quality Dolby Surround sound without cumbersome loudspeakers
at the back of the room and without centre loudspeakers on the television set.
This is made possible by a digital signal processor („DSP“) which converts the
analogue audio signals of your video recorder or another Dolby Surround
sound source into a digital signal, processes the Dolby Surround information
of the audio signal and converts it into virtual 3D information. The processor
then converts this information back to analogue and mixes it with the actual
audio signal.
The result is amazing! Your living room becomes a cinema and the virtual
surround sound draws you into the action.
You can also listen to this virtual fascination without disturbing others! For
this purpose, the DSP-360 includes a powerful headphone amplifier with which
the best results are achieved when you connect a set of high-quality Sennhei-
ser headphones. An ideal combination which we recommend is operation with
the HD 500 FUSION.
Important note: Only Dolby Surround recordings create the correct 3D
impression. The processor should not be used for normal stereo recordings.
