PANORAMA provides greater
spaciousness and envelopment for
either music or films. These programs
can utilize left and right rear channels but are
also effective using only two front loudspeakers.
The CONCERT HALL modes con-
tain two effects: Ambience (Club
and Hall) and Reverb (Cathedral).
The Ambience effect generates the
appropriate early reflections for ste-
reo simulation of rectangular and
fan-shaped halls in a variety of sizes. The
Reverb effect emphasizes rich, smooth reverberant decay in small, medium or large
spaces.
The Surround modes are designed to
make full use of additional loud-
speakers at the center, sides and rear
of the room. In MUSIC SURROUND, FULL
allows unprocessed music to be played over
all your speakers. MUSIC LOGIC is appropriate for any type of music and for stereo films
which are not Dolby encoded. STEREO
LOGIC envelopes you as though you were on
stage with the musicians. The MOVIE SUR-
ROUND modes work with film sound tracks
to recreate the theater experience. MONO
LOGIC expands the music and effects on
monaural films. TV MATRIX provides surround effects for TV viewing of monaural,
stereo and stereo-synthesized programs.
PRO LOGIC should be used during playback
of any encoded films or music.

The actual angle, or "toe in" of the speakers should
be set according to the manufacturer's suggestions.
If you are using only one rear speaker, or a single
amplifier channel for the rears, it may be hooked
up to either the left or right rear output, as long as
you use the correct Configuration number.
Subwoofers are not shown in any of these configurations. Consult the subwoofer owner's manual or
your dealer for proper placement of subwoofers.
