DTS 96/24*8					This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is high-resolution DTS	D	XCN
					with a 96 kHz sampling rate and 24-bit resolution, providing superior fidel-
	D T S	9 6 / 2 4
					ity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.
DTS-ES Discrete*9					This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks, which use a dis-	G	N*5
					crete surround back channel for true 6.1/7.1-channel playback. The seven
	E S	D i s c r e t e
					totally separate audio channels provide better spatial imaging and 360-
					degree sound localization, perfect for sounds that pan across the surround
					channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with
					a DTS-ES Discrete soundtrack.
DTS-ES Matrix*9					This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks, which use a matrix-	G	N*5
					encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1-channel playback. Use it with DVDs that
	E S	M a t	r	i x
					bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix soundtrack.
DTS Neo:6					This mode expands any 2-channel source for up to 7.1-channel playback. It	S	XCN*5
					uses seven full-bandwidth channels of matrix decoding for matrix-encoded
	N e o : 6
					material, providing a very natural and seamless surround sound experience
					that fully envelops the listener.
	N e o : 6 C i n e m a				• Neo:6 Cinema
					Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).
	N e o : 6		M u s i c		• Neo:6 Music
					Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV,
					VHS, DVD).
					This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel	D	N*5
					playback.
Audyssey DSX*10					™	D	N
					Audyssey DSX is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve sur-
					round impression. Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX first adds Wide	F
	A u d y s s e y D S X
					channels for the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human hearing	G
					has proven that information from the Wide channels is much more critical in
	P L	M o v		D S X	the presentation of a realistic soundstage than then Back Surround channels
					found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX then creates a pair of Height
	P L	M u s		D S X	channels to reproduce the next most important acoustical and perceptual
					cues. In addition to these new Wide and Height channels, Audyssey DSX
					applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the blend between the
	P L	G a m		D S X
					front and surround channels.
					The combination of Dolby Pro Logic II and Audyssey DSX*10 modes can	S	N
	N e o : 6		C	D S X
					be used.
					The combination of Neo:6 Cinema/Music and Audyssey DSX*10 modes	S	N
	N e o : 6 M D S X
					can be used.
