|
|
|
|
| Audyssey DSX first adds Wide channels |
|
|
|
|
|
| for the biggest impact on envelopment. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Research in human hearing has proven that |
|
|
|
|
|
| information from the Wide channels is |
|
|
|
|
|
| much more critical in the presentation of a |
|
|
|
|
|
| realistic soundstage than Back Surround |
|
|
|
|
|
| channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Audyssey DSX then creates a pair of |
|
|
|
|
|
| Height 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 front and surround |
|
|
|
|
