when you listen to the component to these jacks, set the
TAPE MONITOR button to on.
If you connect a 3–head cassette deck, you can listen to the
sound being recorded during recording, not the source
sound.
For further details, refer to the operating instructions of the
component connected.
SOURROUND MODE
With SURROUND MODE, you can select 2 different
surround modes: PRO LOGIC, 3 STEREO, OFF.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC : choose this setting to play back
movies and music (especially Laser Discs, video cassettes
and TV broadcasts with DOLBY SURROUND sound). Not
only does Dolby Pro Logic surround provide you with sound,
it also gives you a clear perception of the position and
direction of the sound. Make sure your 'Speaker
Positioning' is correct. (see 'INSTALLATION')
With a great number of recently made movies, the sound
track is specially encoded with the Dolby Surround mode
carrying the DOLBY STEREO or DOLBY
SURROUND trademark. The front speakers provide the
dialogue and the normal stereo effect, while the rear
speakers reproduce the surround signals. This position
provides excellent results when watching television
programs, video software, video discs or video tapes of
stereo television broadcasts encoded with Dolby Surround.
Note : In DOLBY PRO LOGIC mode, the rear speakers are
used as "EFFECT SPEAKERS" and may not produce
sound at all times.

contents are all cleared.
In the standby mode, press the POWER button on the remote control.
– The power is turned on, the respective indicators light up and the standby indictor lights off.
AMPLIFIER
DOLBY 3 STEREO : Choose this setting to play back
movies and music (especially Laser Discs, video cassettes
and TV broadcasts with DOLBY SURROUND sound) when
not using the rear speakers. You get a clear perception of
the position and direction of the sound.
DOLBY 3 STEREO combines the front and rear signals so
that you can enjoy a regenerated sound field, which has
comparatively more lively presence and a more expansive
feeling from the three front channels (front left, front right
and center speakers) than that of ordinary stereo
regeneration.
OFF : Turns off the center and rear speakers for normal
stereo operation.
Note : Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby 3 Stereo will not work
properly if the signal passes through a graphic equalizer.
Please refer to your equalizer operating instructions for
guidance on switching off (or defeating) the equalizer.
SURROUND MODE CONTROL
Each surround mode has programmed values for centermode, center and rear levels and/or for rear channel time
delay (as appropriate).
These values will then be kept in the memory until they are
changed again.
The various values that can be adapted in the different
surround modes are described next:
