The
built-in
surround
processor
enables
you
to
enjoy
a
3-dimensional
sound
effect
similar
to
the
one
you
experience
in
movie
theaters.
Overview
The
surround
sound
processor
provides
three
types
of
sound
effects
—
Dolby
Pro
Logic
Surround,
Dolby
3-Channel
logic,
and
JVC’s
Hall
surround
—
so
that
you
can
experiment
with
a
variety
of
sources
and
surround
sound
effects.
IMPORTANT!
The
surround
processor
has
no
effect
on
monaural
(non-stereo)
sources.
The
soundtracks
of
video
software
bearing
the
mark

surround]
include
the
same
encoded
surround
information
as
found
in
Dolby
Stereo
films.
The
Dolby

Surround
decoder

equipment,
and
it
lets
you
recreate
the
theater
ambience
and
effects
of
Dolby
Stereo
at
home.

¢
four
primary
sound
channels

effects,
while
