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 DVD player to a 6 channel amplifier equipped
with a Dolby Digital decoder or Dolby Digital processor. If you have a Dolby Pro
Logic Surround 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.
