•DOLBY DIGITAL

A surround audio format configured with six channels. Because the “sub-woofer” channel, one of the six channels, is an auxiliary channel, this format is called “5.1-channel system.”

•DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

A surround audio format configured with six (5.1) channels which is same as Dolby Digital. Because the compression ratio is lower than Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.

•MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing)

A format for DVD AUDIO with the compression ratio of about 2:1 while allowing the PCM signal to be completely recreated by the MLP decoder (required in all DVD AUDIO players). It supports up to 192kHz/24- bit.
