Some particular examples of velocity operators in absorbing and excited crystals having dielectric, magnetic, and elastic anisotropy and frequency dispersion are considered. Expressions for the velocities of polarized normal waves are given in the vector form for any directions of phase normals. These expressions are valid for geometric analysis of velocities in the case of continuous or discrete changes in the sets of 3D propagation directions and the sets of initial polarizations of bulk waves and wave beams in crystals.
