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 a more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround. This unit is equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel so that you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround sound. The new system provides stereo separation of the rear speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-Left). Adding the subwoofer channel to the 5 channels for bass sounds (counted as 0.1 channel) results in 5.1 channels that bring you the most sophisticated Dolby Digital sound enjoyment.
