FINAL SOUND FVSS-201/P DVD RECEIVER USER MANUAL vs. 1.4

2. Congratulations
Thank you for purchasing the Final Sound FVSS-201/P DVD Receiver. After reading this manual
and connecting your system, you will hear the results of a unique combination of the Final Sound
electrostatic panels with a DVD receiver, which is designed for both virtual surround sound and
stereo sound.
In case of a dipole line array the virtual surround effect will propagate far deeper
into the room as there are almost no reflections from the walls the floor or the ceiling. Final’s
implementation of an inverted electrostatic loudspeaker has also additional benefits as the
product has already a broad soundstage and gives a transparent and lifelike sound reproduction.
The Final Sound DVD receiver can be used together with the various Final electrostatic panels
and subwoofers
Panels; F90i, F100i, F150i, F200i, F300i and F400i
Subwoofers S95, S110 and S220
The FVSS-201/P has been designed to give the user the optimal sound quality for stereo as well
as for virtual surround. The user will be able to have an optimal setting of the acoustical
parameters by selecting the applied electrostatic loudspeaker from the setup menu.
Virtual Surround
The Final Sound FVSS-201/P supports virtual surround mode. Movie sound consists of at least
five channels and a dedicated subwoofer channel. To recreate five channels of sound in your
living room, you need five loudspeakers and a subwoofer. Some customers won´t place five
loudspeakers for several reasons. Virtual surround will bring a good alternative. Thanks to
advanced computer simulations, it’s possible to emulate a surround sound experience using only
two loudspeakers. Simply connect two Final electrostatic loudspeakers and a Final Sound
subwoofer to the FVSS-201/P DVD Receiver, engage the virtual surround mode and enjoy
surround sound all around your listening position. The receiver supports two virtual surround
modes. One gives a wide surround effect and the other mode is narrower.
Powering Final electrostatic panels
The Final Sound FVSS-201/P provides two outlets to power up Final Sound electrostatic panels.
