Stereo/Nicam/Virtual Dolby sound
The NICAM process consists of sending digital stereo sound comparable to that from an audio CD via a land based transmitter
in addition to its usual mono equivalent. So by means of the NICAM process, you can get digital sound with the quality of a laser
compact disc.
The Virtual Dolby sound enables you to recreate the ambience of the cinema sound (from Dolby encoded sound sources) without
external speakers.
