SRS® TruSurround® XT
Building on the success of TruSurround technology, TruSurround XT audio adds three new audio
enhancement technologies to produce an amazingly immersive sound experience. Dialog Clarity™ brings movie dialog into
“ focus” during the playback of any surround-encoded material to make speech much clearer and crisper. TruBass creates
incredible deep rich bass allowing a person to perceive significantly deeper, richer low bass tones that are far beyond the
physical low frequency capabilities of the speaker itself. And WOW widens the soundstage by processing standard two-
channel stereo material as well as multi-channel encoded material for a dramatic improvement in the playback of any stereo
audio over a two-speaker system.

Freeze Function
Sony’s Freeze Function is a useful function that allows you to temporarily freeze the picture in a separate
screen while the programming continues to display. This comes in handy when you want to copy a recipe, phone number,
etc. that flashes too quickly across your screen. Simply touch the “ Freeze” button on the remote control and copy the details
down at your convenience.
