Surround Mode -

Dolby Digital 5.1 sound is processed normally

directing discrete channel audio sound to 6 speakers
(DPTV Front Right/Center/Left speakers; two rear
Surround speakers; and one Subwoofer low
frequency speaker.)

For any two channel plain stereo audio (arriving

within the ATSC Dolby Digital carrier signal) the
DPTV processes the audio to play standard stereo in
the Left/Right Front DPTV speakers only.

Stereo Mode -
• Left/Right audio input signals
are directed to the

DPTV’s two front L/R speakers.

• ATSC Dolby Digital multichannel sound signals are

downmixed to two channels and sent to the Front
Left/Right DPTV speakers. This is to avoid audio
distortion on any non-Dolby pseudo-surround
programming that may be received.

n order to receive the full
reproduction capability of true

Dolby Digital Surround Sound
you require the proper use and
arrangement of a Subwoofer and
surround speakers
. The DPTV’s
extra speaker connections make it
possible to create a multichannel
soundfield effect previously
available only within a movie
theater or concert hall. With the
new 5.1 discrete digital channel
surround sound system the listener
can now attain a true soundstage
realism for audio signal
separation, imaging, and pinpoint
sound placement.
Note: If the Front External
Speaker Out
terminals are used for
Left/Right audio channel playback
of Dolby Digital material, the
FRONT SPEAKER slide switch on
the rear of the DPTV must also be
placed to the EXT(ernal) position
in order for the connection and
signal routing to operate properly.
