Surround Sound And Home Cinema - Bang & Olufsen BeoVision 7 Manual

12
You can extend your television into a
surround sound system by adding
Bang & Olufsen loudspeakers and up
to two BeoLab 2 subwoofers.
When you switch on one of the
sources, speakers in a surround
sound system can be cut in or out,
depending on what kind of sound
suits the source you are using.
If you connect a projector, you can
turn your television into a Home
cinema. When you switch to the
Home cinema setup, the television
switches the picture from its own
screen to the projector screen and
activates the appropriate speakers.
For further information about how to
connect speakers to the television,
refer to the chapter 'Set up the tele-
vision' on page 1 in the Reference
book.
