Available surround sound formats

EN-10
The unit recognises two different surround sound
formats.

Dolby Digital 5.1

In Dolby Digital sound format the audio material is
saved digitally. In this instance, up to five separate full-
frequency audio channels (front left and front right,
centre, rear left and rear right) as well as an effect or
depth channel (5.1) are stored separately. Discs and
media recorded in the Dolby Digital format are marked
with the trademarks shown here.
Because each channel is completely independent, a
realistic, almost "three-dimensional" effect is produced,
creating the impression of distance, movement, and
relative position in the room.
Your device can read this audio data and transmits it to
the digital outputs for decoding (OPTICAL).
dts (Digital Theater Systems)
The dts abbreviation is used for a less frequently used
sound format in which up to 6 (5.1) separate channels
are saved to a sound medium. Discs and media
recorded in the dts format are marked with the
trademarks shown here.
