Digital 5.1
Dolby Digital 5.1 gives you fi ve discrete channels of full-range digital audio, plus one channel of low-
frequency (subwoofer) audio, for use by A/V receivers capable of decoding the 5.1-channel signal. e
audio signals are broken into left-front, center, right-front, left-rear, right-rear and low-frequency channels.
