Explanation
Surround System
DOLBY PRO LOGIC Surround
M;mv motion pictures produced have been released in the 4-channel
"Dolhy Stereo" sound, with music, dialogue, and panned effects com
ing from the .4-channel front soundstage. and surround effects and
ambience emanating from the sides and rear of the theater.
The motion picture masters arc used for production of stereo VHS,
VHS-Hi-Fi. Beta Hi-Fi. and stereo laser discs that you can buy or rent
at your video store. The TX-SV.S.S.S incorporates the Digital Dolby
Pro Logic Surround Circuit, which is designed to decode the four
channel the audience experience found in DOLBY STEREO movies.
Dolby Pro Logic Surrotmd is capable of creating ;i multi-dimensional
soundstage, but with the increased channel separation it gives a far
gretiter sense of "movement" and sound localization. Just like in the
theater, the addition of the active center channel ensures that all audi
ence members hear ditilogue coming from its on-screen sources
regardless of seating position.
THKATER Surround
Fhere arc man\ surround speakers in an actual theater. The THFi-
.ATER Surround mode uses Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoding, fol
lowed by additional audio processing designed by ONKYO. Lse this
mode for creating a theater atmosphere. This mode is suitable for
playback of media recorded in the Dolby Surround format.
HALL Surround
fhis mode is especially suitable for media alreadv having a substan
tial timount of reverb sound such as classical music, 'fhe atmosphere
of a concert hall can be simulated.
Live Surround
Reproduces the feeling of a live performance.
ARENA Surround
This mode recreates the feel ot listening to a pop concert in a domed
statlium.
Since the TX~SV.S.4.s is equipped with Front amplifiers. Center ampli
fier and Surround amplifiers. Dolby Pro Logic. Theater. Hall, Live
and Arena Surrotmd effects can he prodticed. You can enjoy the feel
ing of a movie theater, concert hall or ball game ground in your own
room.
DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
The DSP converts the musical signal into digital form and produces
reflected sound from the digital signal. This is applied to the musical
signal to yield an effect approaching that of a live performance.
NOTES:
• The concert hall effcci is produced from the reflections and rever
berations contained in the original recording. These are converted
into reflected sound that is reproduced from lour directions, rhus,
in some cases an unnatural impression can he conveyed if there are
too few reflections in the recording or if the effects in the original
recording were produced artificially.
• The concert hall effect is not nterely an artificial reverberation unit.
Ivut a ^o¡'мм^íiC(itcd clicct that spreads existing reverberation around.

Speaker placement phiys an imporlant role in
the reproduction of sound using Surround.
The manner in which the speakers are placed
\ arics depending on the si/e of the room tind
the wall coverings used in the room. The fol
lowing shows an example of a layout for
standard speaker placement. Refer to the
example for placing the speakers appropri
ately in order to experience the best Surround
sound.
In principle, for Surround sound reproduc
tion, two Front speakers and two Surround
(Rear) speakers tire required. Refer to the
illustrtition on the left.
Placing the front speakers
If the Fh'ont I, and R speakers are placed loo
far away from ettch other, sound spreads out
too much and is dispersed resulting in dimin
ished sound quality.
Placing the center speaker
fo enjoy Surround sound, ;i Center spetiker is
required in addition to the four basic speak
ers.
If a screen w ith ;t projector is usetl. place the
Center speaker under the screen. If a Monitor
I'V is used, it is recommended that the Center
speaker be placed on top of or uniler the
.Monitor.
Placing the rear speakers
To bring out the feeling of shifting sound, the
rear speakers should not he placed on the
lloor. but would be most effectixe placed
above car position. They can ttlso be phiced
tacine the ceiline or walls ttr reflect the

Pladng a subwoofer speaker
To enjoy powerful bass sounds, install ;i subwoofer with a built-in power amplifier. The
placement of the .Subwoofer does not affect
