LISTENING TO STEREO/DUAL-CHANNEL TV SOUND
The Model 6738 is fitted with full performance Stereo Theatre Sound where the internal
speakers are ducted to the front of the set for maximum stereo effect. The Model 6738 is
fitted with separate bass and treble controls available on the front panel and these should be
used to give the most enjoyable results tailored to your own taste in sound.
The audio response has been adjusted by the factory to give best results across a range of
movies and studio programs, but there will be some programs where the stereo effect is too
pronounced and may detract from the overall performance. This is particularly noticeable
no some outside broadcasts and movies, where sibilance in speech is heard as lisping or
spitting on 'S' and 'T' sounds. In this case, the set should be switched back to MONO
using the handset) when the lisping sound will be more acceptable. It is a characteristic of
stereo sound that such flaws in the broadcast system are much more audible.
Stereo on a good program adds a new dimension to sound, but it can also be annoying on
a bad movie or on an uncontrolled outside-broadcast. In this case, switch back to MONO
using the handset and the Stereo effect is removed. You have full control over the sound
with the bass and treble controls. Reducing bass and treble will give a better result on both
Stereo and Mono.
