ABOUT DTS AND DOLBY DIGITAL SURROUND MODES

DTS DIGITAL SURROUND

The Digital Theater System Digital Surround (simply called DTS) is a multichannel digital signal format that can process higher data rates than with Dolby Digital. Although both Dolby Digital and DTS are 5.1 channel media formats, discs bearing the “DTS” symbol are thought to provide better sound quality due to the lower audio compression required.

It also offers a broader dynamic, producing magnificent sound quality.

DOLBY DIGITAL

Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed in the Dolby laboratories. Discs bearing the “DOLBY/Digital” symbol were recorded with up to 5.1 channels of digital signals, reproducing a much better sound quality, with dynamic and spatial sound sensations that are much better than in the previous Dolby Surround.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC

Dolby Pro Logic is a surround format consisting of four channels (front right, centre, front left and surround. Media sources with the “Dolby Surround” feature produce a theatre–like surround sound. The surround channel is monophonic, but it is reproduced in both surround speakers.

This mode applies conventional 2-channel signals such as digital PCM or analog stereo signals as well as

Dolby Surround signals, etc. to surround processing which offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro

Logic circuits. Dolby Pro Logic II surround has two decoding modes:
