What is Dolby Digital?
Dolby Digital is a system that maximizes the
surround effect by improving upon existing 4
channel Pro Logic. It consists of a total of five
channels: three front channels (left, center, and
right), two rear channels (left and right), plus a
LFE channel for the subwoofer. It is commonly
known as a 5.1 channel system.
5.1 Channel Surround Sound
You can enjoy 5.1 Channel Dolby Digital Soundtrack
if you connect a Dolby Digital external amplifier with
5.1 channel analog jacks to your DVD player.
