Dolby. PCM is usually stereo. Dolby will give you simulated surround and the actual ‘.1’ signal to the Sub.

Hi,

Thanks!

But I also read that the thing with eARC is that it also gives PCM 5.1 and 7.1 in uncompressed audio?

Only if the source/device uses that format. Most streaming sources/devices max out at DD+, except for Apple TV.
