Sound Enhancement Systems
This receiver is equipped with several built-in sound
enhancement systems.
Dolby Digital
The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital
surround from software processed in the Dolby
Digital format. Dolby Digital provides better sound
quality and more powerful presence than
conventional Dolby Surround.
This unit is equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel

sound. Being different from Dolby Pro Logic in which
only four channels ( Front Left, Front Right, Centre
and Rear ) are used, the new system provides stereo
separation of the rear speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-Left
). These 5 channels, together with the subwoofer
channel for bass sounds (counted as 0.1 channel ),
constitute as 5.1-Channel ( or 6 Channels ) Input for
Dolby Digital that brings you the most sophisticated
sound enjoyment.
