The following audio formats are supported by the listening modes.
This is mono (monophonic) sound.
This is stereo (stereophonic) sound. Two independent audio signal channels
are reproduced through two speakers.
This is 5.1-channel surround sound. This surround system has five main
channels of sound and a sixth subwoofer channel (called the point-one
channel).
This is 7.1-channel surround sound. This is a further sound enhancement to
5.1-channel sound with two additional speakers that provide greater sound
envelopment and more accurate positioning of sounds.
This is DTS-ES surround sound. This surround system can produce a discrete
or a matrix-encoded sixth channel from existing DTS 5.1 encoded material.
This is Dolby Digital EX surround sound. This provides a center back surround
channel from 5.1-channel sources.
