Dolby Pro Logic

This state of the art Dolby Pro Logic
mini system enables you to experience
and enjoy a Home Cinema sound
ambience. The Pro Logic system allows
more accurate definition of the
individual sound sources. It produces
greater sound separation between
channels and provides pinpoint sound
localization. Pro Logic provides four
sound outputs: Left, Center, Right and
Surround (Rear). Front sounds are
produced from the pair of Left and
Right speakers and a Center speaker.
The surround sound is reproduced by
two speakers placed at the rear of the
listening area. Although the surround
sound is monaural (single-source), a pair
of speakers is necessary to produce the
correct diffused sound.
This Pro Logic decoder enables you to
decode the following modes: Dolby
Surround, Center Phantom, Dolby 3
Stereo or normal Stereo.
Setting up the Dolby Pro
Logic system
You must set up the system properly in
order to enjoy the Home Cinema
sound to the fullest. First, connect the
speakers.
