What is Dolby Digital

Surround?

Some DVDs have up to 5.1 channel soundtrack recorded in Dolby Digital (AC-3) format. Using an amplifier with 5.1 channel inputs and the 5 (+1*) speakers, you can enjoy more real audio presence in the comfort of your own home.

Even if you have fewer than 5 (+1*) speakers, the player distributes the output signal to the speakers appropriately.

You can also enjoy the VES (Virtual Enhanced Surround) system using the DCS (Digital Cinema Sound) method that Sony developed. The VES system realize surround sound only with front speakers.
