DVD-Video/Audio und Multichannel-Sound 5.1 / 6.1
DVD-Audio
DVD-Audio is a format specifically designed to provide the highest possible audio fidelity capable on DVD, far exceeding the quality of conventional CDs and audio on DVD-Video. It takes advantage of DVD’s large storage capacity, speed and flexibility. DVD-Audio provides for audio both in stereo and in multi-channel surround. In addition to audio, a DVD-Audio disc can contain a limited amount of video, which can be used to display text, such as lyrics or notes, or stills such as a photo album. Additionally, DVD-Audio supports a significantly higher quality of PCM audio than is possible on CD or DVD-Video. Full multi-channel surround sound can be recorded in high fidelity PCM, creating a sound field with the ambience and fullness of a live performance.
DVD-Video
Alpine makes it possible to enjoy truly spectacular movie entertainment right in the car. Image quality is superb, and is complemented by multi-channel (5.1 and 6.1-channel) sound. The two most popular formats for reproducing 5.1-channel sound are Dolby Digital and DTS, both of which do an excellent job of providing a dynamic and realistic surround sound environment. Now both formats have new versions able to deliver 6.1-channel sound, which are called Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES Discrete 6.1.
MP3 / WMA
Many of our head units are compatible with MP3 and WMA compressed audio. Which means you can compile hundreds of songs, hours of music on just a single CD-R and play it in your car.
