PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
■ Although the cassette deck’s record/playback heads
used in this unit are high quality heads with
outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can
become dirty through the use of old tapes or from
dust accumulation over time. This can have a
serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the
heads regularly with one of the commonly available
head cleaners or with cleaning solutions.
■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that
specified on this unit. Using this unit with a higher
voltage than that which is specified is dangerous and
may result in a fire or other type of accident causing
damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for
any damage resulting from use of this unit with a
voltage other than that which is specified.
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends
on speaker location and other factors. Care should
be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of
sound, which may occur when turning on the unit
with the volume control setting at high, and to
continuous high levels of sound.
■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or
operation in an extremely humid environment may
cause condensation inside the cabinet.
Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction.
To eliminate condensation:
•
CD pickup
Leave the power on with no disc in the unit until
normal playback is possible (about 1 hour).
•
Tape head
Leave the power on with no tape in the unit until
normal playback is possible (about 1 hour).
Note
If condensation forms on the tape head, foreign
matter may accumulate during use.
•
Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmitter window
with a soft cloth before operating the unit.
■ This system is designed for using the provided
Active Servo Processing Speaker System for front
speakers. Therefore, do not attempt to connect
other conventional speakers to the FRONT
SPEAKERS terminals of this system.
■ Choose the installation location of this unit carefully.
Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source
of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and
excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away
from sources of hum such as transformers and
electric motors.
■ Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may
overheat, possibly causing damage.
■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the
set, contact your dealer.
■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before
starting an audio source play: increase the volume
gradually to an appropriate level after play has
started.
■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection
wires. When moving the unit, first disconnect the
power plug and the wires connected to other
equipment. Never pull the wire itself.
■ Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical
solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean,
dry cloth.
■ Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section
regarding common operating errors before
concluding that the unit is faulty.
■ To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC
power plug and the antenna cable when there is an
electrical storm.
■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket
before you finish all connections.
■ Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools,
etc.) to come near the cassette deck’s
record/playback head assembly in this unit. Doing so
may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-
smooth finish, it may change the magnetic
characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration
in reproduction performance quality.

FEATURES
Dolby Pro Logic Surround
This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar
to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie
theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder,
you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby
Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro
Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro
Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four
levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel
(used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channels
(used for sound effects, background noise, and other ambient
noises). The center channel allows listeners seated in even
less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from
the action on the screen while experiencing good stereo
imaging.
Dolby Surround is encoded on the sound track of pre-
recorded video tapes, laser discs, and some TV/cable
broadcasts. When you play a source encoded with Dolby
Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder
decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound
effects.
In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance
control. This always assures you the best performance
without manual adjustment.

SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS
This system is designed to provide the best sound-field quality with a 5 speaker configuration: front speakers, rear speakers and a
center speaker. You may omit the center speaker, if for some reason it is not practical to use a center speaker. (Refer to the “4-
Speaker Configuration” shown below.)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus the effect sounds. The rear speakers are used for the effect and
surround sounds, and the center speaker is for the center sounds (dialog etc.).

Speaker configuration
(1)5-Speaker Configuration
This configuration is the most effective and recommended
one. In this configuration, the center speaker is
necessary as well as the rear speakers. If the sound field
program DOLBY PRO LOGIC or DOLBY 3 STEREO is
selected, conversations will be output from the center
speaker and the ambience will be excellent.
● Set the center channel mode to the “NORMAL”
position. (For details, refer to page 15.)
(2)4-Speaker Configuration
The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the
sound field program DOLBY PRO LOGIC is selected, the
center sound is output from the left and the right front
speakers, although the program DOLBY 3 STEREO is
useless in this configuration. However, the sound effect
of other programs can be the same as that of the 5-
speaker configuration.
● Be sure to set the center channel mode to the
“PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 15.)
Note
Be sure to use two rear speakers. If you connect one rear
speaker only, sound will not be output from the rear speaker.
Speaker placement
Front speakers: In normal position.
Rear speakers: Behind your listening position, facing
slightly inward. Nearly six feet (approx.
1.8 m) up from the floor.
Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers.

■ Mounting the rear speakers
Mount the rear speakers on a shelf, rack or on the floor
directly, or hang them on the wall.
To mount the rear speakers on a wall
1 Attach the provided mounting bracket to the rear of the
speaker by using the provided screws.
2 Fasten screws into a firm wall or wall support as shown in
the diagram, and hang the holes of the mounting bracket
on the protruding screws.
* The holes are arranged so that the speakers can be
mounted in a side long, upright or upside-down way.
* Make sure that the screws are caught by a narrow part
of the holes securely.
Notes
●
Never attach the bracket to the speaker conversely.
●
Speaker cords should be connected to the speaker’s
terminals after the bracket has attached to the speaker to
prevent the speaker cords pressed between the speaker
and the bracket.
SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS
WARNING:
● Each speaker weighs 0.8 kg (1 lbs. 12 oz.). Do not
mount them on thin plywood or soft wall surface
material, as the screws may come out of the flimsy
surface, causing the speakers to fall down and be
damaged, or result in personal injury.
● Do not fasten the speakers to wall with nails,
adhesives, or other unsound hardware. Long-term use
and vibrations may cause them to fall down.
● To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose
speaker cables, fix them to the wall.
To hang in a side long way
Hang the speakers so that each of them faces inside as
figured left.

TV or inside the TV rack so that it is stabilized.
When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the
speaker from falling down, put the provided pads at four
points on bottom of the speaker.
Notes
• Do not place the speaker on top of the TV whose area
is smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If
placed, the speaker may drop out causing an injury to
you.
• Though this speaker is a magnetic shielding type, there
may be some influence on a TV picture depending on
the type of TV or the placement of the speaker. In such
a case, place the speaker apart from the TV so that
there is no influence on TV picture.

This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level balance
between the front, center, and rear speakers using the built-in
test tone generator. When this adjustment is performed, the
sound output level heard at the listening position will be the
same from each speaker. This is important for the best
performance of the built-in Doiby Pro Logic surround decoder.
The adjustment of each speaker output level should be
done at your listening position with the remote control
transmitter. Otherwise, the result may not be satisfactory.
Before operation
Set the CENTER MODE switch on the rear panel of the main
unit to the position suitable for your speaker system
configuration. (Refer to page 9 for details.)

following the procedure of the section “To recall a preset
station” on the previous page.
To recall a preset station
Simply follow the procedure of the section “To recall a preset
station” on the previous page.
Notes
•
The automatic preset tuning search will be performed
through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the
number of received stations is less than 40, the search will
stop after searching all frequencies.
* Since FM stations are searched for first, there may be a
case that 40 preset stations are occupied by FM
stations only.
•
<U.K. and Europe models only>
The unit is originally set so that only RDS stations are
searched instead of all FM stations by this operation. (FM
stations that employ no RDS network service cannot be
programmed.)
However, you can change the setting so that the unit can
program not only RDS stations but also other FM stations.
(Refer to page 30 for details.)
•
With this function, only stations with sufficient signal
strength are stored automatically. If the station you want
to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in
monaural manually and program it by following the
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the
previous page.
•
You can replace a preset station by another FM or AM
(MW or LW) station manually by simply following the
procedure of the section “To store stations” on the

is canceled and turns into the frequency display. If the
station has PS data, after that, it turns into the PS
mode.
3 Press the PTY SEEK START button.
The unit begins searching all preset FM stations.
* “PTY HOLD” lights up on the display.
* The preset number indicator, the name of the program
type and “AUTO” flash. The preset number changes
rapidly in sequence.
● If a station which broadcasts a program of the program
type is found, the unit stops at the station and turns into the
frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that, it
turns into the PS mode.
● If the called station is not the desired one, press the PTY
SEEK START button once more before “PTY HOLD” goes
out from the display. The unit begins searching for another
station which broadcasts a program of the same program
type.
● If no station is found, “NO PTY” appears and then returns
to frequency display. If the station has PS data, after that,
it turns into the PS mode.
* If the PTY SEEK START button is pressed once more
during searching, this mode is canceled and turns into
the frequency display. If the station has PS data, after

The Sound Field Processor built into this system presents you with the ambience of an actual concert hall etc. by adding effects as
sonic reflections or reberverations that create the sound environment of a hall etc. This system provides preset sound field
programs shown below. You can enjoy an excellent audio sound field by selecting one of them, and adding desired adjustments.
This system incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded
video sources. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding sound field
program.

(KARAOKE L)

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 are 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.
These programs are available on Australia, China, Singapore and General models only.
(Refer to page 51 for karaoke operation.)

Adjusting DELAY TIME
You can adjust the time difference between the beginning of
the source sound and the beginning of the effect sound.
This adjustment can be made to all programs (except DOLBY
3 STEREO) individually.
By applying more or less delay, sound effects, background
noise, and ambient noise coming at you from the rear
speakers can be enhanced or subdued for extra effect.
Control range
PRO LOGIC : 15, 20, 25, 30 milliseconds
HALL, ARENA : 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 milliseconds
1 Press the CENTER/REAR/DELAY selector button once
or more so that “DEL” appears on the display.
2 By continuously pressing the LEVEL control + or – button,
the value changes continuously.
The value stops changing momentarily at the preset point.
Notes
● When DOLBY 3 STEREO is selected, this adjustment
cannot be made.
● Adding too much delay will cause an unnatural effect with
some sources.
● When the LEVEL control button is pressed, sound is
momentarily interrupted.
Note
The values of the delay time, center level and rear level you
set the last time will remain memorized even when the power
of this unit is off.
However, if the power cord is kept disconnected for more
than one week, these values will be automatically changed
back to the original factory settings.

HOW TO USE THE BUILT-IN TIMER
Timer play
By using the built-in timer, you can set the time when the unit
turns on and a source begins playing automatically, and the
time when the unit turns off automatically.
1 Prepare the source to be played.
For tuner:
Tune in to the station you will listen to.
For tape deck:
Load a tape into the cassette compartment.
(If tapes are loaded in both the compartments, tape 1
takes priority of tape 2, and is played back by the timer
play.)
For CD player:
Load a disc on the disc table. If more than one disc are
loaded on the disc table, select the disc by using the
DISC selector buttons or the DISC SKIP button.
2 Press the DISPLAY button.
Whenever the DISPLAY button is pressed, the display
mode changes as follows.
At each mode, make a setting for the timer play, referring
to the setting procedure described below.
➀ Current time (TIMER on/off mode)
➁ Source selecting mode (TAPE, TUNER, CD)
➂ ON TIME/Time setting mode
➃ OFF TIME/Time setting mode
➄ Normal display mode
* The display mode will be changed to the next mode
after about 8 seconds elapse automatically. If the mode
is changed before the setting is completed, call the
mode again by pressing the DISPLAY button once or
more.
Setting procedure:
➀ At the display of current time
Check to be sure that the current time is correct, and
press the TIMER button so that “TIMER” lights up on
the display.
➁ At source selecting mode
Select the source (TAPE, TUNER or CD) to be played
by pressing the corresponding input selector button.
* If “TUNER” is selected, soon it is changed to the
frequency display mode. In this mode, you can
select the station to listen to with the timer play by
using the PRESET/TUNING/BAND selector button,
A/B/C/D/E button and / buttons.

changed to a time setting mode.]
Set to the time when you want to begin the timer play
by using the HOUR button and the MIN button.
➃ At OFF TIME/time setting mode
[“OFF TIME” appears on the display, and soon it is
changed to a time setting mode.]
If necessary, set to the time when you want to finish
the timer play (to turn this unit off) by using the HOUR
button and the MIN button. Even if you do not set the

To cancel the timer play setting
After the timer play is finished, press the DISPLAY button to
call the current time. While the current time is displayed,
press the TIMER button so that “TIMER” goes out from the
display.
If it is not canceled, the system will be turned on at the same
time every day, so it can be used as an alarm. However, if
you are planning to go out at that time, cancel the timer play
setting.
* Unless the AC supply lead is unplugged or there is a
power failure for more than 5 minutes, the time set on the
timer will be retained until it is reset.
How to make time setting in the ON TIME or OFF
TIME mode
For the hour:
Press the HOUR button to change the hour to a higher value.
Press and hold to change continuously.
To change the hour to a lower value, press the button.
For the minute:
Use the MIN button and operate it in the same way as you
did to change the hour.
To change the minute to a lower value, press the
button.

Therefore, do not attempt to connect other conventional speakers to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals of this system. ■ Although the cassette deck’s record/playback heads used in this unit are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions. ■ Choose the installation location of this unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as transformers and electric motors. ■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this unit with a higher voltage than that which is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than that which is specified. ■ Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage. ■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer. ■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker location and other factors. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which may occur when turning on the unit with the volume control setting at high, and to continuous high levels of sound. ■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before starting an audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after play has started. ■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet. Condensation can cause the unit to malfunction. To eliminate condensation: ■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself. ■ Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth. • • ■ Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section regarding common operating errors before concluding that the unit is faulty. ■ To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm. • ■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you finish all connections. ■ Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the cassette deck’s record/playback head assembly in this unit. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirrorsmooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance quality. E-2 CD pickup Leave the power on with no disc in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour). Tape head Leave the power on with no tape in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1 hour). Note If condensation forms on the tape head, foreign matter may accumulate during use. Remote control Wipe off condensation on the transmitter window with a soft cloth before operating the unit. WARNING IMPORTANT Please record the serial number of this unit in the space below.

When you play a source encoded with Dolby Surround on this unit, the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder decodes the signal and distributes the surround-sound effects. In addition, this unit features a built-in automatic input balance control. This always assures you the best performance without manual adjustment. This unit employs a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder similar to professional Dolby Stereo decoders used in many movie theaters. By using the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you can experience the dramatic realism and impact of Dolby Surround movie theater sound in your own home. Dolby Pro Logic employs a four channel five speaker system. The Pro Logic Surround system divides the input signal into four levels: the left and right main channels, the center channel (used for dialog), and the rear surround sound channels (used for sound effects, background noise, and other ambient noises). The center channel allows listeners seated in even less-than-ideal positions to hear the dialog originating from the action on the screen while experiencing good stereo imaging.

English SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS SETTING UP THE SPEAKERS ■ Mounting the rear speakers 1 Mount the rear speakers on a shelf, rack or on the floor directly, or hang them on the wall. To mount the rear speakers on a wall 1 Attach the provided mounting bracket to the rear of the speaker by using the provided screws. 2 Fasten screws into a firm wall or wall support as shown in the diagram, and hang the holes of the mounting bracket on the protruding screws. * The holes are arranged so that the speakers can be mounted in a side long, upright or upside-down way. * Make sure that the screws are caught by a narrow part of the holes securely. Wall/ wall support 2 Notes Never attach the bracket to the speaker conversely. ● Tapping screw (Available at the hardware store) Good ● No good Speaker cords should be connected to the speaker’s terminals after the bracket has attached to the speaker to prevent the speaker cords pressed between the speaker and the bracket. 40mm To hang in a side long way Hang the speakers so that each of them faces inside as figured left. WARNING: ● Each speaker weighs 0.8 kg (1 lbs. 12 oz.). Do not mount them on thin plywood or soft wall surface material, as the screws may come out of the flimsy surface, causing the speakers to fall down and be damaged, or result in personal injury. ● Do not fasten the speakers to wall with nails, adhesives, or other unsound hardware. Long-term use and vibrations may cause them to fall down. ● To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose speaker cables, fix them to the wall. E-10 ■ Mounting the center speaker Place the speaker on top of the TV or on the floor under the TV or inside the TV rack so that it is stabilized. When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the speaker from falling down, put the provided pads at four points on bottom of the speaker. Notes • Do not place the speaker on top of the TV whose area is smaller than the bottom area of the speaker. If placed, the speaker may drop out causing an injury to you. • Though this speaker is a magnetic shielding type, there may be some influence on a TV picture depending on the type of TV or the placement of the speaker. In such a case, place the speaker apart from the TV so that there is no influence on TV picture. CONNECTIONS Never plug the AC supply lead of this system into the AC outlet until all connections are completed. How to Connect: Connecting speakers Connect the provided speaker cords to the SPEAKERS terminals properly as shown below. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is the + and – markings are observed. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. As a sure method, connect the wire with a silver line to the + terminals on both main unit and speaker, and connect the wire with no line to the – terminals on both of them. (See figure 8 on page 1 0.) Connect the provided speakers to the SPEAKERS terminals on the rear of the main unit. Connect the front speakers (NX-GX70) to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals, the center speaker (NX-C70) to the CENTER SPEAKERS terminals and the rear speakers (NXE70) to the REAR SPEAKERS terminals. Do not connect speakers other than the designated to the respective SPEAKERS terminals. * Use the provided speaker cords for the connections. Normally, use the short cords to connect with the front speakers, and use the long ones to connect with the rear speakers. Caution Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the amplifier and/or speakers. Red: positive (+) Black: negative (–) Note on connecting a subwoofer (separate purchase) ➀ Press up the tab. ➁ Insert the bare wire. ➀ You may wish to add a subwoofer to reinforce the bass frequencies. Connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of the main unit to the INPUT terminal of the subwoofer amplifier, and connect the speaker terminals of the subwoofer amplifier to the subwoofer.

E-26 <U.K. and Europe models only> RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system gradually being introduced by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal. RDS data contains various information, such as PI (Program Identification), PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program Type), RT (Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), etc. RDS function is carried out among the network stations. * This unit utilizes PS, PTY, RT and CT to receive RDS broadcast stations. Displaying RDS data This unit can be turned into the following four modes to display RDS data. PS (Program Service name) mode: Displays the name of the RDS station now being received instead of the frequency. BBC R3 PTY (Program Type) mode: RT (Radio Text) mode: Displays information about the program (such as title of the song, name of the singer, etc.) on the RDS station now being received. CT (Clock Time) mode: Displays current time. This signal comes from the RDS station now being received. Time of the built-in clock can be automatically corrected on the basis of this signal. Displays the type of the program on the RDS station now being received. There are 15 program types to classify RDS stations as follows. NEWS News: Short accounts of facts, events and publicly expressed views, reportage and actuality. AFFAIRS Current affairs: Topical program expanding or enlarging upon the news, generally in different presentation style or concept, including documentary debate, or analysis INFO Information: Program whose purpose is to impart advice in the widest sense, including meteorological reports and forecasts, consumer affairs, medical help, etc. VARIED Varied: Used for mainly speech-based programs usually of light-entertainment nature, not covered by above categories. Examples are: quizzes, panel games, personality interviews, comedy and satire. POP M Pop: Commercial music, which would generally be considered to be of current popular appeal, often featuring in current or recent record sales charts. ROCK M Rock: Contemporary modern music, usually written and performed by young musicians. M.O.R. M M.O.R.: (Middle of the Road Music). Common term to describe music considered to be “easylistening”, as opposed to Pop, Rock or Classical. Music in this category is often but not always, vocal, and usually of short duration (<5 min.) SPORT Sport: Program concerned with any aspect of sport. EDUCATE Education: Program intended primarily to educate, of which the formal element is fundamental. DRAMA Drama: All radio plays and serials. LIGHT M CULTURE Culture: Programs concerned with any aspect of national or regional culture, including religious affairs, philosophy, social science, language, theatre, etc. Light classics: Classical Musical for general, rather than specialist appreciation. Examples of music in this category are instrumental music, and vocal or choral works. CLASSICS Serious classics: Performances of major orchestral works, symphonies, chamber music etc., and including Grand Opera. OTHER M Other music: Musical styles not fitting into any of the above categories. Particularly used for specialist music, of which Jazz, Rhythm & Blues, Folk, Country, and Reggae are examples. SCIENCE Science: Programs about the natural sciences and technology.

You can enjoy an excellent audio sound field by selecting one of them, and adding desired adjustments. This system incorporates a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder for multi-channel sound reproduction of Dolby Surround encoded video sources. The operation of the Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder can be controlled by selecting a corresponding sound field program. MUSIC ROCK BLUES RAP JAZZ PROGRAM USER PRO LOGIC HALL ARENA 1 2 3 STEREO KARAOKE L R 3 4 Brief Overview of Sound Field Programs PROGRAM PRO LOGIC 3 STEREO 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. HALL In this program, the center will appear to be deep behind the front speakers, creating an expansive large hall ambience. Orchestra and opera music are suited for this sound field. ARENA This program simulates the sound environment of a big hall with long reverberation time and many reflections of high frequencies.
