Dolby Surround Pro Logic II - HU-850 only
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is a further development of the previous version of the system and provides enhanced
sound quality. The improved sound is particularly apparent to passengers in the rear seat.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II, together with a center speaker in the dashboard, offers you a sound experience very
close to a live performance. The normal left-right stereo channels are divided to left-center -right. In addition, surround
sound is produced by the rear speakers. This surround sound mirrors the ambience of a concert hall.
NOTE
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is optimized for CD mode.
When listening to FM radio stations, Dolby Surround Pro Logic II functions best in areas with strong reception. If
reception is weak, selecting 2 or 3-channel stereo may provide better sound quality.
3 channel stereo is recommended for AM and FM broadcasts.
