96 kHz / 24 bit bitstream

 

DTS® Digital Surround delivers 5.1 digital sound that rivals master soundtracks. DTS® soundtracks are included

 

in many DVD videos, DVD Audio discs and PlayStation®2 games. The Z-5450 Digital includes a hardware DTS®

 

decoder for master quality sound. The Z-5450 Digital also includes support for DTS® 96/24 - an enhanced,

 

higher-resolution, studio-quality format available on many DVD video and DVD Audio discs.

 

For wireless transmission to the rear channels, Logitech introduces the world’s first THX™-certified wireless rear speaker system that features independent rear channels (no wires between rear speakers or a receiver box). This proprietary digital wireless technology offers state of the art clarity and reliability with adaptive channel hopping, redundant transmission of music streams, and low latency using 48kHz sample rates. 96kHz audio streams are re-sampled to 48kHz in the rear channels only.

Selecting Your Source Input

Pressing the Input button cycles through the various audio input sources.

The inputs will always cycle in the same order, as shown below.

With 2-position Switch in ‘6 Ch. Direct’ Mode:

•Direct: input stream from the analog inputs

•Optical 1: input stream from the Optical 1 input

•Optical 2: input stream from the Optical 2 input

•Coax: input stream from the coax input

Cycling through the inputs is always the same unless you have the 2-position switched to ‘Stereo 1-3’ mode.

With 2-position Switch in ‘Stereo 1-3’ Mode:

•Stereo 1: Use the Front L/R analog input (green) as a stereo input

•Stereo 2: Use the Rear L/R analog input (black) as a stereo input

•Stereo 3: Use the Center/Sub analog input (orange) as a stereo input

•Optical 1: input stream from the Optical 1 input

•Optical 2: input stream from the Optical 2 input

•Coax: input stream from the coax input
