Highlights

DVD Micro Theatre

HDMI 1080i

1080i HDMI

HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia
Interface. It is a

direct digital connection that
can carry digital HD video as well as digital
multi-channel audio. By eliminating the
conversion to analogue signals it delivers
perfect picture and sound quality, completely
free from noise. HDMI is fully backwards­compatible with DVI (Digital Video Interface).

Progressive Scan

Progressive Scan doubles the vertical
res

olution of the image resulting in a noticeably
sharper picture. Instead of sending a field
comprising the odd lines to the screen first,
followed by the field with the even lines, it
writes both fields at the same time. A full image
is created instantaneously, using the maximum
resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives
a sharper picture with no line structure.

Moving Surround Sound

Powered by Dolby Virtual Speaker technology,
Mo

ving Surround Sound expands and enriches

the audio and video experience by adding a
'visual' dimension. Listeners can now
appreciate an immersive surround sound
experience that they can also 'see' with
movement. Essentially, both the top speaker
and the metal bullet speaker heads are
motorised so they actually 'move' together to
recreate a surround sound experience. The
combination of the moving speakers creates a
'sound beaming' effect towards the listener,
effectively widening the sound stage and the
sides of the room.

Dolby Virtual Speaker

Dolby Virtual Speaker is a sophisticated audio
virtualisation

technology that produces rich
and immersive surround sound from a two­speaker system. Highly advanced spatial
algorithms faithfully replicate the sonic
characteristics that occur in an ideal 5.1­channel environment. DVD playback is
enhanced by expanding the 2-channel
environment. When combined with Dolby Pro
Logic II processing, any high-quality stereo

source is transformed into true-to-life, multi­channel surround sound. No need to purchase
extra speakers, wires or speaker stands to
appreciate room-filling sound.

Digital Sound Control

Digital Sound Control offers you a choice of
p

reset Jazz, Rock, Pop and Classical controls
you can use to optimise the frequency ranges
for different musical styles. Each mode uses
graphic equalizing technology to automatically
adjust the sound balance and enhance the most
important sound frequencies in your chosen
music style. Ultimately, Digital Sound Control
makes it easy for you get the most out of your
music by precisely adjusting the sound balance
to match the type of music you are playing.
