Teac AG-V3050 - SURROUND EFFECTS; Surround Mode Selection

SURROUND EFFECTS
The AG-V3050 provides three surround effect modes:
two for sources encoded with Dolby Surround
information and one for source not encoded with this
information.
Available Surround Modes
DOLBY PRO LOGIC Surround
HALL Surround
For stereo sources not encoded with Dolby Surround,
this mode creates a surround effect including rich
natural reveberations similar to those heard in a
concert hall.
Certain movies are encoded with Dolby Surround;
when you watch these movies in a theater, you hear
sound from speakers both at the front and the rear,
resulting in a unique “surround sound" effect. For
example, it can create the effect of a car or plane
moving from the front right to the rear left of the
theater. Many of these movies are available on video
tapes and videodiscs, and the AG-V3050 is equipped
to recreate the same surround sound effect that you
hear in a movie theater in your home. This is one of its
main features, making the ideal receiver for your
home audio/video system.
To enjoy the Dolby Pro Logic Surround effect, you will
have to install one pair of front speakers, one center
speaker and one pair of rear speakers (Detailed
speaker installation is mentioned later), and you will
have to play video sources carrying the
" DO [potsysumnouno] " * mark.

DOLBY 3 STEREO Surround
To enjoy the Dolby Surround effect without rear
speakers, select this mode instead of Dolby Pro Logic
mode. Front speakers receive rear (surround) speaker
signals in addition to front speakers signals. Center
speaker works similarly as that of Dolby Pro Logic
mode. In this way, you can enjoy playback sound
having superior sound positioning.
