If you connect a 3­head cassette deck, you can listen to the sound being recorded during recording, not the source sound. For further details, refer to the operating instructions of the component connected. SOURROUND MODE With SURROUND MODE, you can select 2 different surround modes: PRO LOGIC, 3 STEREO, OFF. DOLBY PRO LOGIC : choose this setting to play back movies and music (especially Laser Discs, video cassettes and TV broadcasts with DOLBY SURROUND sound). Not only does Dolby Pro Logic surround provide you with sound, it also gives you a clear perception of the position and direction of the sound. Make sure your 'Speaker Positioning' is correct. (see 'INSTALLATION') With a great number of recently made movies, the sound track is specially encoded with the Dolby Surround mode carrying the DOLBY STEREO or DOLBY SURROUND trademark. The front speakers provide the dialogue and the normal stereo effect, while the rear speakers reproduce the surround signals. This position provides excellent results when watching television programs, video software, video discs or video tapes of stereo television broadcasts encoded with Dolby Surround. Note : In DOLBY PRO LOGIC mode, the rear speakers are used as "EFFECT SPEAKERS" and may not produce sound at all times. 8 AMPLIFIER DOLBY 3 STEREO : Choose this setting to play back movies and music (especially Laser Discs, video cassettes and TV broadcasts with DOLBY SURROUND sound) when not using the rear speakers. You get a clear perception of the position and direction of the sound. DOLBY 3 STEREO combines the front and rear signals so that you can enjoy a regenerated sound field, which has comparatively more lively presence and a more expansive feeling from the three front channels (front left, front right and center speakers) than that of ordinary stereo regeneration. OFF : Turns off the center and rear speakers for normal stereo operation. Note : Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby 3 Stereo will not work properly if the signal passes through a graphic equalizer. Please refer to your equalizer operating instructions for guidance on switching off (or defeating) the equalizer. SURROUND MODE CONTROL Each surround mode has programmed values for centermode, center and rear levels and/or for rear channel time delay (as appropriate). These values will then be kept in the memory until they are changed again. The various values that can be adapted in the different surround modes are described next: DOLBY PRO LOGIC Use the SURROUND MODE or press PRO LOGIC button on the remote control. Press the CENTER MODE button to select the required center channel mode : NORMAL ­ If the center speaker is a smaller model, which means it will not reproduce bass as deep or as loud as the left and right speakers. WIDE ­ If all three front speakers are identical and capable of reproducing low bass information and if equal power is available in the left, center and right amplifiers. PHANTOM ­ If no center speaker is installed. Use the REAR LEVEL buttons to adjust the rear level (related to the front level). ­ SUR lights up on the display. ­ The level will be indicated on the display : SUR VOL Use TEST TONE button on the remote control to obtain the correct balance between the levels of the left, right, center and rear speakers in the DOLBY PRO LOGIC and DOLBY 3 STEREO mode. DOLBY PRO LOGIC Press the TEST TONE button on your remote control. You will hear a test tone from the left (FL), center (C), right (FR) and rear (R) speakers in turn, in repeating a cycle. While sitting in the usual listening position, adjust the level of the center and the surround channels to get the same sound level with the front channel. ­ The levels will be indicated on the display. When you are satisfied with the levels, press the TEST TONE button on your remote control again to turn off the test tone. DOLBY 3 STEREO In the Dolby 3 Stereo mode you can adjust only the levels of the left, right and center speakers. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corpration.
