is output without surround-sound
processing. The speaker configuration
(presence of speakers), crossover

and much of the processing set via the

(page 57).

DTS 96/24
*5
This mode is for use with DTS 96/24
sources. This is high-resolution DTS
with a 96 kHz sampling rate and 24-bit
resolution, providing superior fidelity.
Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS
96/24 logo.
DTS-ES Discrete
*6
This mode is for use with DTS-ES
Discrete soundtracks, which use a
discrete surround back channel for true
6.1/7.1-channel playback. The seven
totally separate audio channels provide
better spatial imaging and 360-degree
sound localization, perfect for sounds
that pan across the surround channels.
Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES
logo, especially those with a DTS-ES
Discrete soundtrack.
DTS-ES Matrix
*6
This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix
soundtracks, which use a matrix-
encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1-
channel playback. Use it with DVDs that
bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those
with a DTS-ES Matrix soundtrack.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic IIx expands any 2-
channel source for 7.1-channel
playback. It provides a very natural and
seamless surround-sound experience
that fully envelops the listener. As well
as music and movies, video games can
also benefit from the dramatic spatial
effects and vivid imaging.
