Setting the Dolby digital functions
(Dolby D)
The Dolby digital functions consist of the Dolby
Pro Logic II on/off function and dynamic range
compression switching.
●
Dolby Pro Logic II:
Dolby Pro Logic II is a matrix decoding technol-
ogy in which the updated digital matrix technol-
ogy is applied and Dolby pro Logic is further im-
proved. It realizes excellent 5.1 channel repro-
duction of Dolby surround source as well as ste-
reo sound sources such as CDs, thereby caus-
ing a surround channel to be full-ranged (20 Hz
to 20 kHz) and become stereo. Therefore, you
can enjoy any stereo sources with dynamic sound
of 5.1 channel.
Note:
• The Dolby Pro Logic II function sound effects are
only supported for stereo signals.
• This function is not available when center
and rear (surround) speaker were turned off
in the section “Turning speakers on or off”.
●
