The surround system reproduces video software programs carrying the
mark with similar acoustic effects to movie
theaters.
The DOLBY PRO LOGIC mode controls the audio signals of the Front Left/Right, Center and Rear surround channels using the built-in
directivity enhancer circuit to reproduce the feeling of sound motions very realistically.
The DOLBY 3 STEREO mode can reproduce the motions of sound even when only the front and center speakers are used, by providing proper
acoustic position using the directivity enhancer circuit.
The SRS (Sound Retrieval System) is an innovative system simulating a 3-dimensional sound space, which features clearly improved
feelings of depth, sound field extension and acoustic image positioning as well as a widened listening area.
