PREPARATION

For the best possible surround sound, all of the speakers (except the subwoofer) should be placed at the same distance from the listening position.

1 Front Speakers (L, R)

Place the front left/right speakers on both sides of your TV at equal distances. Main roles: Produces front channel (stereo) sounds and effect sounds.

2 Center Speaker

Place on top of the TV or inside the TV rack so that the speaker and TV are aligned vertically. Main role: Produces sounds oriented toward the center of the screen such as dialogues or vocal sounds.

3 Surround Speakers (L, R)

Place the surround left/right speakers behind the listening position. (For NX-S301, we recommend placing them at a height of 1.8 m (6 feet) and pointing them at the listening position.) Main roles: Produces surround sounds and effect sounds.

4 Subwoofer

Place the subwoofer near a front speaker and turn it slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections. Main roles: Produces bass sounds and low frequency (LFE) sounds contained in Dolby Digital or DTS.

Note

To avoid magnetic interference, do not position the front speakers too close to your TV. Allow adequate ventilation around the DVD receiver and subwoofer. Bass sounds produced by the subwoofer may be heard differently depending on the listening position and subwoofer location. To enjoy desired sounds, try to change the location of the subwoofer according to the listening position.

GLOSSARY

Analog

Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific numerical values. These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right.

Aspect ratio

The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs. is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9.

Bit

Short for binary digit. Represents the smallest unit of information manipulated on a computer. In audio systems, the bit size determines resolution to digitize analog signals. The larger the bit size, the larger the dynamic range (the ratio of maximum and minimum frequency level) and the finer the sounds. Generally, an audio CD is 16 bit and DVD audio is 24 bit.

Bit rate

The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; measured in kilobits per second, or kbps. Also, the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or recording speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a disc.

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT

Jacks for inputting or outputting a component video signal.Component video signal consists of three lines, the luminance signal (Y) and two color difference signals (P

, PR/CR), which enable to provide high-

B/CB

quality video.

Disc menu

A screen display prepared for allowing selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc. recorded on a DVD.

DivX

DivX® is a video compression technology developed by DivX®Networks, Inc. It compresses digital video data to sizes small enough to be transported over the Internet without reducing the original video quality. You need DivX codec software to play back DivX movies or convert data to the DivX format.

Dolby Digital

Digital surround sound system which is developed by Dolby Laboratories provides completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3 front channels (left, center, and right) and 2 surround stereo channels, Dolby Digital provides five full-range audio channels. With an additional channel especially for bass effects (called LFE, or low frequency effect), the system has a total of

5.1-channels (LFE is counted as 0.1 channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby Surround.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic II

It is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround programme material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on convertional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders).

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

Digital surround sound system developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which provides 5.1 channel audio (max). With an abundance of audio data, it is able to provide authentic-sounding effects.

Interlace

The most common type of scanning used in televisions. It divides a screen into even and odd numbered fields for scanning, and then builds an image by combining them into one image (frame).

JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group)

A standardized image compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group. It can reduce image data sizes to 1 to 10% of their original sizes, and works on digital photographs effectively.

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3)

An audio file compression technology. It can reduce audio data sizes to about 10% of their original sizes while maintaining CD-level audio quality.

MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group)

International standard for digital video and audio compression generated by ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). Includes MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-3. MPEG-1 offers VHS level video quality and is often used on video CDs. MPEG-2 offers S-VHS level video quality and is often used on DVDs.

Page 57

Parental control

Limits Disc play according to the age of the users or the limitation level in each country. The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, playback will be prohibited if the software’s level is higher than the userset level.

Playback control (PBC)

An on-screen menu recorded on a Video CD or SVCD that enables interactive playback and searching.

Progressive Scan

A method of displaying all scanning lines in a frame at once, reducing flicker noticeable on a larger screen and creating a sharp and smooth image.

Region code

Many DVD discs include a region code so that the copyright owner can control DVD software distribution only to regions where they are ready to distribute. There are six regions codes, which restrict a DVD player to playing a DVD disc with the same region code.

S-video output

A jack for inputting or outputting an S-video signal. S-video signal consists of two lines, the luminance signal (Y) and color signal (C), which enable to provide high-quality video during playback or recording.

Super Audio CD

This audio format is based upon the current CD standards but includes a greater amount of information that provides higher quality sound. There are three types of discs: single layer, double layer and hybrid discs. The hybrid disc can be played on existing CD players as well as Super Audio players since it contains both standard audio CD and Super Audio CD information.

Surround

A receiver for creating realistic three-dimensional sound fields full of realism by arranging multiple speakers around the listener.

VR format (Video Recording format)

A DVD video recording format, which allows editing DVD video data recorded onto a disc. You need a VR format compatible player for playback.
