[. . . ] Emphasis was placed on compatibility with the existing system Dolby Digital 5. 1-channel, and the new "surround back (SB) channel" was added to achieve improvements over the conventional 5. 1-channel system in terms of the positioning of the sound at the rear, the acoustic image of sound moving from the two sides to the back as well as sound moving from the front to the center rear with the multi surround speaker systems used in movie theaters, thereby enabling various types of surround sound. The surround back channel signal is a matrix-encoded signal inserted into both the Dolby Digital SL (surround left) and SR (surround right) channels. Upon playback, the signals are decoded by a high precision digital matrix decoder within the Dolby Digital decoder into the SL, SR and SB channels and output as 6. 1 channels of signals. With the AVR-5800, the signals further undergo Home THX Cinema processing to achieve a THX Surround EX system. [. . . ]
