Dolby Surround 7.1: Big Sound for the Big Screen

Dolby® Surround 7.1 is the newest cinema audio format developed to provide more depth and realism to the cinema experience. By adding two additional discrete audio channels, Dolby Surround 7.1 takes the excitement of movies to the next level and truly immerses you in the action. Dolby Surround 7.1 also improves the spatial dimension of soundtracks and enhances audio definition. The result: full-featured audio that better matches the visual impact of film.

5.1 Surround Sound vs. Dolby Surround 7.1

Dolby Surround 7.1 adds two new discrete channels to establish four distinct surround zones.

Using these four zones, mixers now can move sounds from the screen to the rear wall behind the audience without using the speakers on the side walls. They can also pull sounds off the screen into the middle of the room without activating the speakers behind the audience. The result: full-featured audio that better matches the visual impact of the picture.
