Dolby Pro Logic When using conventional video tapes, laser discs, TV programs or CDs with the mark, 3 Dolby Pro Logic extremely natural sound movement and positioning, immersing you in the on screen action. Pro Logic uses a directional emphasis circuit to decode four output channels (front left and right, center and surround) from the two audio channels provided on the software. This set is equipped with six Dolby Pro Logic play modes: Pass through, Movie, Music, Room, Theater and Hall. You can select the optimum mode according to your preference. Dolby Digital When you connect the DVD player or an LD player with an DOLBY DIGITAL RF output to the DOLBY DIGITAL RF input terminal and play DVD, laser discs with 1 mark, you can experience improved sound spatiality, positioning, and impact compared with Pro Logic. This is because Dolby Digital delivers up to 5 totally discrete full frequency audio channels (front left and right, center and surround left and right), plus a bass-only effect channel. Since the signal is digital from the input of the program source until to the output of this unit, a higher quality and clarity of surround sound results. Dolby Digital is a system developed by Dolby Laboratories that transmits 5. 1 channels of digital signals. The surround system developed for movie theaters using this system is called "Dolby SR-D (Surround Digital)". Whereas the conventional Dolby Pro Logic Surround is an analog matrix system, Dolby SR-D is a digital discrete system in which the different channels are completely independent. This makes it possible to achieve a realistic sound field with a "three-dimensional" feel, giving the sound sense of distance, movement and relative position, and creating a surprisingly real and powerful sense of presence when playing movie software in AV rooms. There are 5. 1 channels playback: three front channels (front left, center and front right), two surround channels (surround left and surround right), plus "0. 1 channel" called LFE (Low Frequency Effect) for low bass effect sounds of 120 Hz or less. The signals are recorded on the software in fully discrete fashion, eliminating cross talk between channels and making it possible to control the sound field in the listening/ viewing space with greater precision. [. . . ] Press BAND (Remote label 7) to select AM or FM frequency. Press STATION UP/DOWN (Remote label5 and 6) or press STATION (Front panel 23) then UP/DOWN (front Panel 17 and 21) to go to your preset stations. AUTO PRESET SEARCH (APS) It is to allocate and memory radio station automatically. It will search the station with RDS broadcast first and then search the other without. [. . . ]
