SURROUND SYSTEM
[2 |
What is surround sound?
Normally with ordinary stereo, sound comes only from speakers in
front of the listener; however, in a concert hall or theater, sound re-
flected from the walls and ceiling reaches the listener from all direc-
tions. This is what accounts for the feeling of ambience or spacious-
ness of a live performance.
Surround sound works to reproduce these effects to produce fuller,
more "live" sound.
STEREO WIDE
When the surround speakers are not connected, the stereo wide
function may be activated, This function enhances the stereo effect.
Note however, that it does not operate in the case of a monaural
source.
Speaker System Placement Examples (Fig. [8])
The sound effects obtained in a surround system depend on speaker
placement. Experiment with various arrangements to find the one
most suited to your tastes.
Placing the speakers slightly higher than ear level contributes to
sound quality.
{Case A]
Good sound dispersion; recommended for movies, etc.
[Case B]
Sound appears to come from directly in front of listener' Good for lis
tening to music recordings.
[Case C]
Offers most varied effects; good for watching sports programs or lis
tening to live recordings.
