Does Dolby Headphone technology work with processors that create a surround effect?
Yes. As is the case in a multichannel speaker system, Dolby Headphone technology can be used in conjunction with processors that give stereo material a surround effect. For example, five- and seven-channel matrix decoders with Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby Pro Logic IIx, respectively, provide a wider, more enveloping soundfield on many conventional stereo recordings. Dolby Headphone technology (in its multichannel mode) reproduces these expanded soundfields to great effect, making them sound rich and natural.
