Using Surround Sound
Before you get started
To take advantage of Dolby Pro Logic Surround sound,

Surround Sound” on page 18. This section describes
how to adjust the levels of your speaker system and
customize the DOLBY SUR sound field.
Customizing Sound Fields
You can customize the sound fields by adjusting the
tone (bass or treble) and surround sound parameters
while listening to a program source. The adjusted
parameters are stored in memory automatically and
you can use your custom sound fields just as you
would use the pre-programmed ones. Before you start,
select the sound field you want to customize and start
playing a program.
