Multizone device description

Multizone definition means the ability of using the head device as the two synchronous signals source.

For example by means of the two different signals distribution the user can listen to the radio or see the navigation information on the screen (the first zone), and the back passengers can look the DVD film at the same time (the second zone). In first case the audio signal will be reproduced by front speaker, and in second case – by rear speaker.

The variants of distributing are different and its amount depends on used audio and video sources.

Surround FX

Pro Logic II is a dramatically improved matrix surround system based on the original Dolby Pro Logic system. In the case of Pro Logic, there were four channels: front left, center and front right, plus a mono surround channel that was usually split between two rear speakers. Compared to DPL, DPL II offers two full-range stereo surround channels, more sophisticated steering logic, high channel separation and an exceptionally stable sound field. DPL II uses a simple servo circuits used to derive the five channels. And, unlike the synthetic Jazz club, Hall and Stadium modes found on many AV receivers, DPL II introduces no phony delay-induced echoes, reverb, or tonal coloration.
