Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.

Switching the DOLBY VIRTUAL
This unit is equipped with a DOLBY VIRTUAL function which realizes virtual surround effects using two FRONT speakers in addition to DOLBY PRO LOGIC and DSP modes. Actually the sounds are output only from the two FRONT speakers, however it would seem as if sounds are also being produced from the back.
