Audio Output
Connecting to an active 5.1 speaker system or to an AV amplifier
Surround sound is the concept of expanding the spatial imaging of audio playback from one
dimension (mono/Left-Right) to two or three dimensions.
This is often performed for a more realistic audio environment, actively implemented in cin-
ema sound systems, technical theatre, home entertainment, video arcades, computer gam-
ing, and a growing number of other applications.
Many popular surround sound formats have evolved over the years. They include discrete
5.1 Surround sound on DVD-Audio (DVD-A) or SACD (Super Audio CD), Ambisonic, quad-
raphonic, Dolby 5.1 Surround sound, DTS, DVD-Video (DVD-V), and MP3 Surround.
Parts of the sound systems are:
•
Three for speakers at the front - left (FL), center
(CE) and right (FR).
•
Two for the speakers at rear side—rear left (SL)
and rear right (SR).
•
A port for the subwoofer (SW).
For enjoining surround sound please connect the 5.1 channel analogue output to input of an
5.1 channel sound system with an active amplifier.
