About Front Surround Function
Instead of the traditional 5.1 channel playback system,
we have introduced a virtual surround system that uti-
lizes four speakers situated in the front.
The mechanism is based on an original JVC technique
in which two center speakers, separated by the aver-
age distance between two human ears, deal with the
center signals and the surround signals, while the LFE
(low frequency sound effect) is added to steady the L
channel signal and the R channel signal that are trans-
mitted to the main speakers on the left and right sides.
A high quality digital amplifier drives the speakers at
30W x 4ch.
Characteristics of 4-Speaker Front Surround
• Our original speaker layout and signal processing
does not only save space, but it also ensures a
more realistic sound field.
• Since high quality sound is produced using basic 2
channel stereo, it is ideal for playing music.
• The center surround speaker allows listeners to
enjoy realistic speech localization.
• It provides realistic surround effects, with wider lis-
tening points for both front and back areas.
