In most installations, the center speaker must be placed directly between
the front passenger and driver. Using this function, the center channel
information is distributed to the left and right speakers. This creates an
acoustic image simulating a center speaker directly in front of each
listener. Adjusting the center width in PL II MUSIC (see “Using the Pro
Logic II Mode,” page 52), makes this function ineffective.

• For linear PCM signals, the voice is output from the rear speaker
regardless of the REAR FILL and REAR MIX setting.
With Dolby Digital, the dynamic range is compressed so that powerful

be canceled to achieve an energetic sound with even greater power, like
the sound in a movie theater.
This function works only in the Dolby Digital mode.
