Audio: Surround Sound Video: Types of Display HDTV or EDTV or SDTV? What is what? What should I get? Click Here to find out! 5.1 Surround 5.1 uses:
This notation, e.g. '5.1', reflects the number of full range, discrete channels; including a ".1" to reflect the limited range of the LFE channel. e.g. 5 full-range channels + 1 LFE channel = 5.1 It can also be expressed as the number of full-range channels in front of the listener, separated by a slash from the number of full-range channels beside or behind the listener, separated by a decimal point from the number of limited-range LFE channels. e.g. 3 front channels + 2 side channels + an LFE channel = 3/2.1 This notation can then be expanded to include the notation of Matrix Decoders. Dolby Digital EX, for example, has a sixth full-range channel incorporated into the two rear channels with a matrix. This would be expressed: 3 front channels + 2 rear channels + 3 channels reproduced in the rear in total + 1 LFE channel = 3/2:3.1 Note: The term stereo, although popularised in reference to two channel audio, can also be properly used to refer to surround sound. 6.1 Surround 5.1 EX includes a third surround channel that can be decoded at the listener's option for playback over additional surround speakers placed behind the viewers (rear speakers). The additional center rear information is split between the left and right back surround channels. A 5.1 EX signal, for example, contains 5.1 discrete channels of information. Parts of the signal are then passed through a matrix decoder to create a 6.1 channel playback signal. The 6.1 channels are then properly played over 7.1 channels (i.e. 7 speakers and a subwoofer). 7.1 Surround A 5.1 EX signal, for example, contains 5.1 discrete channels of information. Parts of the signal are then passed through a matrix decoder to create a 6.1 channel playback signal. The 6.1 channels are then properly played over 7.1 channels (i.e. 7 speakers and a subwoofer). 7.1 would use two additional speakers, although no consumer home cinema applications currently exist for it. Some computers are capable of outputting a discrete 7.1 signal.
Note: A distinction is made between the number of discrete channels encoded in the original signal, and the number of channels that are reproduced for playback; these can be added using matrix decoding. A distinction is also made between the number of channels reproduced for playback, and the number of speakers over which these channels are played.
Projector: Using a projector is a great cost effective way to get a widescreen High Definition format for an affordable price. There are a few things to consider first.
