User manual HITACHI C2886TN

[. . . ] *Dolby Pro Logic Surround Sound is the domestic version of Cinema Dolby stereo sound, and allows the viewer to enjoy full cinematic sound quality when watching films or events recorded in Dolby Surround. The surround channels reinforce the stereo image, allowing front to rear sound movements (such as overhead aircraft effects) which immerses the viewer in ambience and special effects. In addition to this, the Pro Logic circuitry is able to create a centre channel, this anchors dialogue and central sounds to the screen so that speech does not become disembodied or lost in sound effects. Dolby Pro Logic together with Hitachi's unique 3DS Spatial Sound system will allow you to enjoy full Cinema Sound in your own home. [. . . ] When selected the STEREO symbol is displayed in the top right hand corner of the TV screen as shown. Monaural In monaural mode the TV transmits a single sound source. The TV will automatically select this sound when a mono signal is found. Some stereo signals can become poor in adverse weather conditions, and mono should be selected to avoid poor sound. Use the key to switch to mono (the symbol below appears when switched). See also Hitachi 3DS System. o o 16 Surround Setup Menu At Hitachi we appreciate the fact that not all living area's are the same, therefore the Surround Setup menu allows the user to balance the sound by adjusting the volume level to each channel, thus accommodating various room layouts. In addition to this the menu also has a Surround Delay mode, this enables the viewer to select the optimum surround sound delay depending on your seating position relative to the TV (not available when 3DS is active). Please note that the Surround Set-up menu is only available in Dolby® Pro Logic and Dolby® Pro Logic Theatre modes, and thus will automatically default to Dolby® Pro Logic when selected. NOTE:When the SET-UP menu begins, the TVs sound is replaced with a noise signal. This is easier to balance than normal TV sound, and will cycle between the centre, left, right and surround channels (the centre channel cannot be adjusted unless an external amplifier for the centre channel is connected and is adjusted from PHANTOM to WIDE or NORMAL modes in the `Speaker Config. ` menu). If 3DS is active the surround PHONO output becomes muted. Press and HOLD the MENU button until 1 2 3 4 Main Menu with INSTALL is shown.
