Dolby Pro Logic
The Pro Logic mode uses the built-in circuit to
steer the Left, Center, Right and Mono Surround
channel audio signals and uses all five speakers
to play both stereo and Dolby Pro Logic program
source, such as TV and VCR.
You can use this mode with any stereo program
source (such as VCR/TV) to enjoy multi-channel
sound experience.
Dolby Digital
The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital
surround from software processed in the Dolby
Digital format. Dolby Digital provides better
sound quality and a more powerful presence
than conventional Dolby Surround. This unit is
equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel so that
you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround
sound. The new system provides stereo separation

the subwoofer channel to the 5 channels for bass
sounds (counted as 0.1 channel) results in 5.1
channels that bring you the most sophisticated
Dolby Digital sound enjoyment.
