A 5.1 surround mix comprises five full-bandwidth discrete main audio channels (thus the'5') plus a restricted-bandwidth sub-bass signal (the '.1') called the LFE channel (LFE stands for Low Frequency Effects).
What this means is that sounds can be positioned much more accurately in the surround environment and then controlled by the engineer to place the viewer in the middle of the action. Drive across the screen, toss a ball, all the sounds follow the action like you were really there. With surround systems pricing now enabling the market to be saturated with home surround systems, all your productions should be considered to be mixed in 5.1 surround.
