DOLBY / DTS SURROUND
Surround
This unit is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to achieve the
same sense of presence as in a movie theater.
Dolby Surround
(1) Dolby Digital (Dolby Surround AC-3)
Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories.
Dolby Digital consists of up to “5.1” channels - front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right, and an additional
channel exclusively reserved for additional deep bass sound effects (the Low Frequency Effects – LFE – channel, also called
the “.1” channel, containing bass frequencies of up to 120 Hz).
Unlike the analog Dolby Pro Logic format, Dolby Digital’s main channels can all contain full range sound information, from the
lowest bass, up to the highest frequencies – 22 kHz. The signals within each channel are distinct from the others, allowing
pinpoint sound imaging, and Dolby Digital offers tremendous dynamic range from the most powerful sound effects to the
quietest, softest sounds, free from noise and distortion.
