Sound system used in cinemas or movie theaters all over the world. The system is marked by high-

MP3 or MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3 is a file compression format used for digital audio files.
It provides files of an extremely small size and may cause a consequential loss of quality.
If you connect the player with this cable, the electronic signals will be converted into optical signals
before being output to the amplifier. This method reduces the noise produced by the electronic circuitry.
Red Green Blue: The RGB values allow you to define a hue.
The actual colour results from the intensity of red, green and blue portions of every pixel.
WMA ( Windows Media Audio ) is a compression format developed by Microsoft
Corporation. It achieves the same sound quality as MP3 with a file size that is smaller
than that of MP3.
