!
You can also perform this operation in the
audio menu that appears by using
MULTI-CONTROL .

If the source is a 2-channel LPCM audio or a
2-channel Dolby Digital audio and you select
SFC effects that are most applicable for 5.1-
channel audio (i.e.,
MUSICAL , DRAMA or
ACTION
), we recommend turning Dolby Pro
Logic II on. On the other hand, when selecting
SFC effects that are intended for use with 2-
channel audio (i.e.,
JAZZ , HALL or CLUB ), we
recommend turning Dolby Pro Logic II off.

even at low volume levels.
