DTS
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and DVD software.
DTS is a strictly digital format and can not be decoded inside most CD, LD or
DVD piayers. For this reason, if you attempt to listen to DTS encoded software
through the analog output of your new CD, LD or DVD player, you will
experience digital noise in most cases. This noise can be quite loud if the
analog output is connected directly to a high power amplification system
Proper measures for playing the digital output as described below should be
taken to avoid this situation. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround playback, an
external5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround decoder system or an amplifier with
a built-in DTS Digital Surround decoder must be connected to the digital
output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU or Tostink) of a CD, LD or DVD player.

Dolby Digital (AC-3)
The Dolby Digital (AC-3) surround format lets you enjoy up to §.1 channels of
digital surround sound from Dolby Digital (AC-3) program sources (such as
Laserdisc software marked POPS). Compared with previous Dolby sur-
round, Dolby Digital {(AC-3) provides even better sound quality, greater spatial
accuracy, and improved dynamic range.
Note
Although a full set of speakers (front left and right, center, Surround left and
right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel Dolby Digital (AC-3)
surround sound, this receiver lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (AC-3) {and Dolby
Pro Logic) program sources, even if you connect only the front speakers.
