Normal mode: This mode is suited for an arrangement in
which the center channel speaker is smaller than the left and
right speakers. Signals below 100 Hz which have almost no
effect on directional orientation are distributed to the left and
right channels,
whereas
the center channel
output signals
greater than 100 Hz. As a result, the bass of the left and right
channels
increases the apparent deepness of the sound.
