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.

You can use one rear speaker only instead of using two rear speakers, and omit the center speaker. (Refer to the “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) Front L Center (1) 5-Speaker Configuration Front R 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 PRO LOGIC or 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 16.) Dialogue Surround sound (2) 4-Speaker Configuration (without the center speaker) Rear R Rear L The center speaker is not used in this configuration. If the sound field program PRO LOGIC is selected, the center sound will be output from the left and the right front speakers, although the program 3 STEREO is useless in this configuration. However, the sound effect of other programs can be almost the same as that of the 5speaker configuration. ● Be sure to set the center channel mode to the “PHANTOM” position. (For details, refer to page 16.) (2) Front L Front R Dialogue Note As this unit is equipped with a monaural amplifier for the rear channel, sounds output from the rear speakers are in monaural. So, you may use one rear speaker only instead of using two rear speakers. However, the use of two rear speakers is recommended when there are more than one listener in the listening room. When using one rear speaker, place it right behind your listening position.

You can enjoy an excellent audio sound field by selecting one of them, and adding desired adjustments. This unit 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 POPS JAZZ USER 12 PROGRAM PRO LOGIC HALL ARENA DISCO 3 STEREO STADIUM MONO MOVIE Brief Overview of Sound Field Programs PROGRAM PRO LOGIC 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. 3 STEREO 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 is 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. DISCO 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. STADIUM MONO MOVIE 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.

CARE OF COMPACT DISCS Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the disc surface. Follow the guidelines below for maximum enjoyment from your CD collection and player. • Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the nonlabel side. Signals are read from the non-label side. Do not mark this surface. • Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat and excessive moisture. • Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt or water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft, dry cloth, wiping straight out from the center, along the radius.
