Functional Overview:

BBE HD Surround begins by compensating for phase and amplitude distortion to restore clarity and definition to the two-channel audio signal.

This reveals the natural spatial information carried mostly in the transients and harmonics of the upper frequencies. The surround process then broadly expands the sound fields to envelope the listener/audience while maintaining proper orientation of the original left and right imaging.

BBE HD Surround includes a unique manufacturer-adjustable center-channel control to restore emphasis to dialog and other sounds centrally located in the original audio mix. This prevents center-channel drop-out, so that movie sound effects passing from side to side maintain proper volume while transitioning through the center channel. The integration of these functions provides a brilliant, realistic surround experience compatible with any content material.
