Product Description
With more portable media players capable of playing movies, wouldn't it be great to listen to them in surround sound? If you've invested in a quality pair of headphones or earphones for your home or portable entertainment, here's a wonderful adapter that'll upgrade your stereo sound. The JVC SU-DH1 uses Dolby Headphone technology to provide 5.1-channel surround sound through any two-channel headphones.

The slim, wallet-sized JVC SU-DH1 weighs in at just 3.5 ounces with two AA batteries installed and easily connects to a laptop computer, portable DVD player, handheld video game system or other portable product. With Dolby Headphone technology, it delivers virtual surround sound on-the-go from multimedia material labeled with Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Digital Surround EX, DTS-ES and MPEG-2 AAC. In addition, the headphone adaptor includes Dolby Pro Logic II, which means that it can provide surround sound from two-channel sources, providing enhanced enjoyment with a variety of entertainment sources, like in-flight movies, portable music players and portable game systems. It offers three different Dolby Headphone modes: the DH1 replicates a studio environment - a room with little reverberation; the DH2 replicates a typical listening room environment and the DH3 delivers a theater or concert hall effect. You can select among three Dolby Pro Logic II settings: Auto, Movie and Music. In Auto mode, the DH1 automatically selects the Movie or Music mode, selecting just the right input source; Movie is selected when the source is digital DVD or analog; Music is selected when the source is CD. The Movie mode is used with Dolby Surround entertainment. Music is used for any two-channel music source.

The JVC SU-DH1 comes with an analog input cord that can be stored easily into the bottom of the unit. There is also an optical digital mini jack for use with an optional connecting cord. Separately, the two AA batteries provide

5 out of 5 stars JVC Surround Sound device is awesome !   March 23, 2006
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I travel alot and enjoy watching DVD's on the plane with my laptop. This device does a Dolby Digital Surround Sound using any kind of headphone.
It makes my DVD's sound great and it is so small and light.
I have also used this with my Video ipod for watching video's in surround and I was blown away.
Highly recommended !



5 out of 5 stars UNIT DOES ACCEPT A POWER SUPPLY   June 1, 2007

A great unit but I have to correct several comments about the lack of a transfomer input. It does have an input for a transformer and JVC makes such a unit. You may find an alternate however.


4 out of 5 stars Buy Stock in the battery companys!   November 11, 2006

This unit sounds super. With a noise reducer headset and this unit, my TV sound is great! However, this unit goes through batteries like crazy. It's too bad JVC didn't allow for an external power source.


4 out of 5 stars 5.1 Sound in Your Headphones if you find the Right Accessory   March 17, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This device produces dolby analog sound when connecting it to your portable device but does not produce digital 5.1 sound unless you connect it to a dvd player with dolby/dts inputs using fiber optic cable with a 3.5mm jack adapter which I finally found packaged with a fiber optic cable at Wal-Mart. Since then I have been enjoying watching my DVDs in 5.1 sound all channels going through in my headphones to produce less noise at work and when I have a condo/apartment.

Great item but do recommend rechargeable batteries if you watch more than 2 films a day which I do!



5 out of 5 stars Outstanding Product -- but Buy Rechargeable Batteries!   May 29, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The JVC SU-DH1 is a very simple, elegant product: it provides full 5.1-channel surround sound through a set of standard headphones. And it works very well: the surround experience is just as enjoyable through headphones, without disturbing others. Thanks to this product, I can now enjoy movies late at night -- at full volume levels -- without having to worry about disturbing my neighbors.

The only downside to this product is that it consumes batteries very quickly. I HIGHLY recommend purchasing a set of NiMH rechargeable batteries, preferably with a "quick" (15-minute) charger. I bought a Duracell 15-minute charger and a set of four NiMH batteries, and they work very well in this JVC.
