Playback with 3D surround sound
In addition to 5-channel sound beams used for surround sound
playback in the horizontal direction, surround sound can be heard
from above by directing two sound beams (from height channels)
upward and reflecting them off the ceiling. Compared to surround
sound playback in only the horizontal direction, this gives the
sound field (spatial expression with sounds) a greater sense of
immersion and reality.
