Audio system

iThe “LOGIC7® ON” function of the harman/kardon LOGIC7® Surround Sound system permits the playback of discrete 5.1 and stereo recordings with an optimal surround sound platform for each passenger. Music on CDs with high-resolution surround formats such as MLP, DTS or Dolby Digital are played back optimally.

The LOGIC7® distributes the 5.1 surround information over the 13-channel system architecture to provide the optimum sound experience on all seats. This produces the sound characteristic as intended by the sound engineer during the original recording.

Harman/kardon LOGIC7® converts all two-chan- nel stereo sound material into multi-channel surround sound. The surround information stored during the original recording is read out using LOGIC7® and likewise distributed over the

13 channels. No effects are created during this process; only that which was already there becomes audible.

In addition, harman/kardon LOGIC7® moves the perceived sound source away from the individual loudspeakers, thus generating a natural 360° sound experience for each passenger.

iBy selecting “LOGIC7® OFF”, all compatible formats are played back as they are present on the medium. Due to the vehicle’s spatial characteristics, an optimal sound experience is not ensured on all seats.

iDiscs supporting the above mentioned audio formats display the following logos:

iBalance und Fader werden automatisch auf den Standardwert (0/0) gestellt, wenn Sie LOGIC7® einoder ausschalten.

iPlease note the following:

For an optimal sound experience at all seats, the balance and fader should be adjusted to the center of the passenger compartment with LOGIC7® switched on.

The best sound results are achieved when playing high-quality audio CDs.

For MP3 tracks, the bit rate should be at least 128 kbit/s.

Surround playback does not function with mono-signal sources such as the medium waveband in radio mode.

In the case of poor radio reception quality, e.g. in tunnels, LOGIC7® should be switched off, as otherwise a dynamic switchover from stereo to mono and thus temporary sound characteristic shifts can occur.

With certain stereo recordings, the resulting sound characteristic may deviate from conventional stereo playback.
