FEATURE
This program is used for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround.
Sounds are reproduced as movie creaters designed by using five speakers. You can experience the
dramatic realism and impact of a movie theater.
This program is effective not only for playback of sources encoded with Dolby Surround, but also for
sources not encoded with Dolby Surround or TV programs with 2-channel stereo sound. With this
program, 2-channel stereo sound is converted into 3-channels (left front, center and right front), so the
dialogs are emphasized on the center position by the use of the center speaker. As no sound is output
from the rear speakers, this program is also effective in a simple Audio/Video system without rear
speakers.
In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the front speakers, creating an expansive
large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music is suited for this sound field.
This program simulates the sound environment of a big hall with long reverberation time and many
reflections of high frequencies.
This program recreates the acoustic environment of a lively disco in the heart of a very lively city. The
sound is dense and highly concentrated. It is also characterized by a high-energy, “immediate” sound.
This program gives you long delays between direct sounds and effect sounds, and extraordinarily
spacious feel of a large stadium.
This program is designed specifically to enhance mono source programs. Compared to a strictly
mono setting, the sound image created in this mode is wider and slightly forward of the speaker pair,
lending an immediacy to the overall sound. It is particularly effective when used with old mono
movies, news broadcasts and dialog.
