Surround Sound Adds to
the Viewing Experience
Movie theatres create a superb acoustic
environment by strategically positioning a
number of large speakers around the
theater. Due to space and design
considerations in our homes, however,
home cinema systems are generally
limited to around six slim, compact
speakers. The challenge is how to use
them to create the same kind of ambience
you enjoy in a movie theatre. Panasonic's
answer: the 360° Sound. Bringing together
three separate functions — 360° Sound,
Surround Enhancer, and H.Bass — this
sound technology delivers dynamic audio
reproduction with outstanding acoustic
motion and wraparound surround sound.
The 360° Sound delivers a pure, beautiful,
powerful sound that transports you right
into the scene on the big screen.

360˚ Sound
Drawing from its long history of
developing innovative audio
technologies, Panasonic has achieved
a level of sound reproduction that
enhances the feelings of motion and
space. Sounds move vertically and
horizontally across a wide acoustic
field, to virtually pull the listener into
the excitement and drama of each
movie.
Surround Enhancer
In conventional 5.1-channel systems, the sound
tends to weaken at the sides or rear of the
central listening position. Surround Enhancer
projects "virtual" speakers into those areas to
complete the circle of sound and enhance the
wraparound effect. The result is a full surround
sound with the kind of lifelike, exciting effect as
the multi-speaker systems in movie theatres.
H.Bass
Dramatically improved audio characteristics in the
subwoofer result in ultra-robust bass sounds that add to
the dynamics and atmosphere of movie and music audio
reproduction. Enjoy powerful bass sounds rivaling those
of the most
advanced theatre
systems, right in
the comfort of
your own home.

H. Bass uses a principle in psycho-acoustics which says that
humans can empirically sense the fundamental tone of a
virtual pitch by listening to its harmonic overtones.
