SURROUND
SYSTEM
(VSX-3000 Only)
What
is surround sound?
With
ordinary
stereo,
sound
normally
comes
only from
speakers in front of the listener. In a concert hall or theater
though, sound reflected from the walls and ceiling reaches
the listener from all directions. This is what accounts for the
feeling of ambience or spaciousness of a live performance.
Surround sound works to reproduce these effects to provide
fuller, more "live" sound.
Speaker System Placement Examples
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 so that they are slightly higher than
ear level contributes to sound quality.
[Example A:}
Sound appears to come from directly in front of listener.
Good for listening to music recordings.
[Example B:]
Offers most varied effects; good for watching sports pro-
grams or listening to live recordings.
[Example C:]
Good sound dispersion; recommended for movies, etc.
