interior.
You will achieve the best sound results by
playing video DVD media.
MP3 tracks should have a bit rate of at least
128 kbit/s.
Surround sound playback does not func-
tion for mono signal sources, such as for
AM radio mode.
If radio reception is poor, e.g. in a tunnel,
you should switch off Logic7
®
, since it may
otherwise switch dynamically between
stereo and mono and cause temporary
sound distortions.
On some stereo recordings, the sound
characteristics may differ from conven-
tional stereo playback.
i
The Logic7
®
On function creates a sur-
round sound experience for every
passenger when playing stereo recordings,
for example. It enables optimum playback
of music and films on CD or video DVD with
multichannel audio formats, such as MLP,
dts or Dolby Digital. This results in sound
characteristics like those intended by the
sound engineer when the original was
recorded.
i
If you select Logic7
®
Off, the sound sys-
tem plays the tracks as stored on the
medium. Due to the design of the
passenger compartment, an optimum
audio experience cannot be guaranteed for
all passengers.
