Sound enhancement systems:
DTS is a digital sound compression
technique developed by Digital Theater
Sound Systems for digital multichannel
audio signals. “DTS” and “DTS Digital Out” are
trademarks registered by Digital Theater Systems Inc.
Dolby Digital is a sound
compression technique
developed by Dolby Laboratories
for digital audio multichannel signals. The Dolby Digital
system supports any audio channel configuration, from
stereo sound (2 channels) up to the digital “surround”
sound 5.1.
If you have a Dolby
Surround Pro Logic
amplifier/decoder, you can
still gain the benefits of surround sound,
- either with titles with the Dolby Surround label
- or with DVD films where the sound has been recorded
through Dolby Digital 5.1 channels.
In both cases, your Pro Logic decoder must be connected
to the 2-channel analogue output of your TV/DVD.
Linear PCM is a signal recording format
used for CDs. CDs are recorded at 44.1kHz
/16 bits. DVDs are recorded at 48 kHz / 16 bits, or even
up to 96 kHz / 24 bits.
