Like Dolby Digital, DTS is a flexible, discrete, digital technology for carrying multi‑channel
audio. DTS supports up to six discrete audio channels; five full range front and surround
channels and a band limited LFE (Low frequency effects) subwoofer channel. All DTS
formats have 24‑bit depth, which allows more audio information to be stored compared
with the normal 16‑bit depth. DTS 96/24 formats improve audio further by using the 96 kHz
sampling frequency instead of the standard 48 kHz.
When this source format is present, the DTS LED is lit.
DTS ES (96/24, Matrix, Discrete)
