Sound system
Dolby Digital is a sound system developed by
Dolby Laboratories, Inc. that gives movie theater
ambiance to audio output when the unit is
connected to a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel
processor or amplifier. This unit automatically
recognizes DVDs that have been recorded with
Dolby Digital. Not all Dolby Digital sources are
recorded with 6 channels. Some sources
marked Dolby Digital may be recorded in Dolby
Surround, a 2-channel system. Look for this logo
on your unit:
The sound system is manufactured under
