A Dolby Enabled Speaker is specially designed to be used
as a Height speaker. There are two types of Dolby Enabled
Speakers; types placed on top of other speakers such as
front speakers and surround speakers (
Ú
), and types that
are integrated with the normal speakers. Dolby Enabled
Speakers placed with their diaphragms facing toward the
ceiling create higher effect in the Dolby Atmos and Dolby
Surround listening modes by providing sounds echoing off
the ceiling. You can select
gh

, or
kl
on this unit.
＊
You can put
kl
on top of back speakers, but even if you connect both
back speakers and
kl
speakers at the same time, you can only output
audio from one of these at a time.
When playing Dolby Atmos, the speakers required depend
on how you have setup your back speakers or height
speakers. The following shows speaker combinations.
