Connecting to an amplifier equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is the surround sound technology used in theaters showing the latest movies, and is now available to
reproduce this realistic effect in the home. You can enjoy motion picture and live concert DVD video discs with this
dynamic realistic sound by connecting the recorder to a 6 channel amplifier equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder or
Dolby Digital processor. If you have a Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic
from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1-channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby
Surround mark.
