Selecting a Surround mode
Since the TX-SV353 is equipped with a front amplifier, center amplifier, and a rear (surround) amplifier, all Dolby Pro Logic Surround
effects can be produced. When using video cassette tapes or video discs that have the DOLBY STEREO or DOLBY SURROUND trade
mark, you can enjoy the feeling of a movie theater in your own room. When reproducing these effects, placement of the rear (surround)
speakers is important for optimum sound quality in your room.
For best results with Dolby Pro Logic Surround, use the test tone to adjust the volume of all speakers to the same level.
