What does DOLBY DIGITAL sound mean?

Dolby technologies put you in the centre of your movie-going experience. You will hear five full-range discrete channels, plus a subwoofer channel that covers the bottom one-tenth of the audible range - these are the technologies that create the experience. The dynamic range (the ratio of the loudest sounds to the softest) is significant and the full-range surround channels make lifelike special effects possible-think helicopters flying overhead. And the subwoofer sound can often be felt as well as heard.
