What is Virtual Dolby Digital?
With improved sound processing using the world’s leading standard, Dolby Digital algorithm, Sony created Virtual Dolby Digital. With only 2 speakers, Virtual Dolby Digital can emulate discrete 5.1 sound channels (front left, front right, back left, back right, center and subwoofer). Coupling the DVD component terminals with the Digital Audio-in, Sony’s ES series Digital Coaxial audio input allows maximum sound performance.
