Description
Surround sound processor.
Intended to be used with any conventional stereo preamplifier to achieve a 5-channel matrix from two (stereo) channels of information. It does not use Dolby® noise reduction or steering logic. The SDP1 has rotary controls for adjustment of level (volume) of center, rear-right and rear-left channels; a fourth rotary control allows choice of time delay for the rear channels from a menu of 5 options ranging from 22 ms to 45 ms. Rear and center channels are operated at full frequency bandwidth, with a minimum of signal manipulation or processing; this helps insure tonal accuracy, transparency and best dynamics. Delay is achieved through advanced digital tech- nology, while gain circuitry (12 dB overall) is fully analog. Front L and R channels remain completely unprocessed at all times for maximum fidelity. The SDP1 features both single-ended and balanced inputs and outputs (three outputs for connections to center and rear channel amplifiers). It is connected to a set of main outputs from the existing stereo preamplifier. Once the center and rear channel levels are set, the main preamp volume control becomes the master control.
