Features
Dolby Digital EX*
Dolby Digital EX is newly introduced surround encoding format
as an extension of multi-channel Dolby Digital, designed to add
an extra surround channel to Dolby Digital 5.1-channel. By using
a matrix encoding/decoding method, additional “surround back”
channel signal is encoded (and decoded) in both the left and right
surround channel signals.
DTS-ES Extended Surround (DTS-ES)**
DTS-ES is another new format developed by Digital Theater
Systems, Inc., adding a surround back channel on the basis of
DTS Digital Surround.
Dolby Pro Logic II*
Dolby Pro Logic II converts all 2-channel stereo software,
especially Dolby Surround encoded software, into 5-channel
(plus subwoofer) signals. It reproduces realistic Surround sounds
approaching to Dolby Digital 5.1-channel. Dolby Pro Logic II has
two modes to reproduce—Movie mode and Music mode.
Neo:6**
Neo:6 can reproduce realistic Surround fields by converting
2-channel stereo software into 6-channel (plus subwoofer) signals.
Neo:6 has two modes to reproduce—Neo:6 Cinema and Neo:6
Music.
DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)
Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience
recreation of existing theaters and halls. Thanks to the high-
performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity
memory, you can enjoy 5.1-channel surround by playing
2-channel or multi-channel software.
Multi-channel headphone virtual surround
sound—3D HEADPHONE
The built-in headphone virtual surround system is compatible with
Multi-channel software like Dolby Digital, DTS Surround, etc.
Thanks to the new signal processing algorithms used by the high-
performance DSP, you can enjoy a natural surround sound through
the headphones.
