TruSurround and Virtual Dolby Digital

This player, by means of the TruSurround* technology of SRS Labs Inc., processes surround encoded stereo audio and multi-channel audio and reproduces Virtual Surround with only the two front speakers.

Particularly, when the playback audio is Dolby Digital multi-channel audio, the Virtual Dolby Digital function automatically works, and a surround sound with a greater sense of presence will be reproduced.
