It provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency effects channel and delivers high-quality multichannel audio without compromising video performance. Dolby Digital is the world wide audio standard for DVD-Video.

Dolby Digital EX

Available when the receiver is configured for 6.1 channel operation. Dolby Digital EX introduces a centre rear channel to the 5.1 playback format.This additional channel provides increased spatiality and realism for audio effects that pan from front to back, as well as enhanced localization of surround channels that originate from directly behind the listener.

When used with movies or other programs that have special encoding, Dolby Digital EX reproduces specially encoded soundtracks so that a full 6.1 soundfield is available. When the receiver is set for 6.1 operation and a Dolby Digital signal is present, the EX mode is automatically selected.

DTS Extended Surround is a 6.1-channel surround sound format that extends the 5.1-channel surround sound format with one additional speaker located in the back of the listener (i.e., back surround channel). DTS ES comes in two versions: DTS Extended Surround Matrix and DTS Extended Surround Discrete 6.1.

DTS 96/24
