symbol

Pro Logic (with Dolby Surround broadcasting)
In addition to the left and right internal speakers, the centre and the rear
surround loudspeakers reproduce the Dolby Surround Pro Logic sounds.
This 4-channel sound is always present in the movie or programme marked
with
G
Dolby Surround.
This mode is especially recommended for such programmes or movies.
Dolby 3 Stereo (optimal with Dolby Surround broadcasting)
The Dolby 3 Stereo sound signal is now distributed over the front left, the
front right and the centre TV loudspeakers.
The rear loudspeakers do not produce any signal.
Hall
The special sound signal is distributed over the rear loudspeakers which
creates a hall effect from the rear.
The centre loudspeaker does not reproduce any signal.
This mode is recommended when you wish to add surround sound to a
broadcast which is not encoded Dolby Surround or to a mono signal.
Stereo
This mode reproduces only the left and right front sound signals.
You only hear a stereo sound if the broadcast which you are watching or
listening to is transmitted in stereo or digital stereo.
With two extra front loudspeakers connected
To enhance the sound reproduction of your TV you may connect two extra
front loudspeakers via an external amplifier.
In the Surround modes, Hall and Stereo
(+ amp)
is added to indicate that you
should switch on your amplifier as in these modes the internal TV speakers

produce centre sound in the surround modes Pro Logic, Dolby 3 Stereo and 3D
Surround.
