What’s Dolby 5.1?
Dolby Digital 5.1 is a sound technology that adds realism and depth to TV shows, films and other types of programming. It does so by mixing different audio channels together. To give you an idea, here’s a breakdown of channels and the sound enhancements it provides:
- Left, Center and Right: allows you to hear crisp and clean dialogue
- Left Surround and Right Surround: makes you feel like you’re in the middle of the action
- Low-Frequency Effects (LFE) also referred to as “.1”: delivers deep, powerful bass effects that you can not only hear, but also feel
