Connecting Digital Speaker Systems (Home Theater)

The Xonar D2 supports Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive technologies, which
transcode any audio, including games and music, into industry-standard Dolby
Digital or DTS 5.1 surround bit-streams. This makes playback through your home
theater system possible, creating an immersive and impressive cinema surround
sound experience. A single digital cable connection can carry high-quality Dolby
Digital or DTS 5.1 digital audio from any of your PC audio sources to any digital
speakers or AV Receivers with Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 decoding capabilities.
