Dolby Pro Logic; Selecting Dolby Pro Logic - Aiwa AV-X100 Manual De Instrucciones

The Dolby Pro Logic feature and the center and surround
speakers (standard) assure full-scale home theater sound. When
playing back laser discs or video software that have been
specially recorded with four-channel sound (left, right, center,
surround) and steering logic (for directing sound), astonishingly
realistic sound surrounds the listener to create a new level of
audio/visual entertainment.
Independent control of the four channels allows the listener to
enjoy the same type of sound reproduction experienced in movie
theaters. Voices are reproduced in the front and center sound
field, while ambient sounds like cars and crowds are reproduced
on all sides of the listener for an incredibly lifelike audio/video
experience. Please read the following carefully to "tune" the
system's output to match the characteristics of your listening
space.
Check the following:
* Before using the DOLBY PRO LOGIC, adjust the proper
balance of the speaker sound levels (see page 13).
o Make sure the speakers are properly connected and positioned
(see pages 3 and 4).
o Make sure the TV set and video unit are properly connected
(see page 3).
* Make sure the laser disc and video tape, etc., support

The optimal Dolby Pro Logic mode depends on the type and
placement of the speakers. It is recommended that the optional
Aiwa speakers should be used for all channels, the SX-R260 for
surround speakers, the SX-C500 for a center speaker and the
SX-AV500 for front speakers. Check your current type and
placement of the speakers and select the recommended Dolby
pro Logic mode accordingly.
