STAV-3450  (310-3031)              Features            Faxback Doc. # 9764

The Optimus STAV-3450 Digital Synthesized A/V Surround Receiver is the
perfect control center for your audio/video system.  It combines 110
watts-per-channel of clean power with modern styling and provides
connections for one tape deck, one audio/video source, one more tape deck
or audio/video playback source, a turntable, a CD player, and a video
monitor.

The receiver also has four special sound options.  Dolby Pro-Logic
Surround Sound delivers movie theater sound for audio/video programs
(especially those encoded with Dolby Surround Sound signals).  Dolby 3CH
Logic provides a wider sound field than ordinary playback.  DSP creates a
listening environment that simulates a jazz club, a dance club, a concert
hall, or a movie theater.  Simulated Surround gives you a surround-sound
effect even when you listen to monaural sources.
