DTS Neo : 6™surround 5.1
This mode applies conventional 2-channel signals
such as digital PCM or analog stereo signals to the
high precision digital matrix decoder used for DTS-ES
Matrix 6.1 to achieve 5.1-channel surround playback.
DTS Neo : 6 surround includes two modes for
selecting the optimum decoding for the signal source.
• DTS Neo : 6 CINEMA
This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding
is performed with emphasis on separation
performance to achieve the same atmosphere with
2-channel sources as with 5.1-channel sources.
• DTS Neo : 6 MUSIC
This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The
front left and front right signals bypass the decoder
and are played directly so there is no loss of sound
quality, and the effect of the surround signals from
the center, surround left and surround right
channels adds a natural sense of expansion to the
sound field.
