Logic 7 Exclusive to Harman Kardon, Logic 7 enhances 2-channel and matrix-encoded See below.

Mode Group recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels.

This provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and

expands the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7

uses 96kHz processing, and is available in 5.1- or 7.1-channel modes.

Logic 7 Especially suited to 2-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix • Analog (2-channel)

solely with a subwoofer. Enhance mode is best used with music recordings. • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)

Hall 1 Hall 1 is a DSP (digital signal processor) mode that simulates a small • Analog (2-channel)

DSP Surround Off Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal. The signal • Analog (2-channel)

is digitized and bass management settings are applied, making it appropriate • Tuner

when a subwoofer is used. • PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)
