Allows you to enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality
digital audio from DTS program sources such as discs, DVD
and compact discs, etc.bearing the trademark. DTS Digital
Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio(which
means identical to the original masters) and results in excep-
tional clarity throughout a true 360 degree sound field. The

channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital pro-
gram source. If you play DVDs with "

improved dynamic range.
(II)
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels
from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced,
high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial
properties of the original recording without adding any new
sounds or tonal colorations.
MOVIE mode:
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television shows and all
programs encoded in Dolby Surround. The result is enhanced
soundfield directionality that approaches the quality of discrete
5.1-channel sound.
MUSIC mode:
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music recordings.
MATRIX mode:
The Matrix mode is the same as the Music mode except that the
directional enhancement logic is turned off. It may be used to
enhance mono signals by making them seem "larger." The
Matrix mode may also find use in auto systems, where the fluc-
tuations from poor FM stereo reception can otherwise cause dis-
turbing surround signals from a logic decoder. The ultimate
"cure" for poor FM stereo reception may be simply to force the
audio to mono.
