One of the most important is reverberation(the act of decaying elements of sound echoing in various places).The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using the DSP tocreate reverberation, without spoiling the sound quality of the originalsignal.DTS modeThe DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and DVDsoftware. DTS is a strictly digital format and cannot be decoded insidemost CD, LD or DVD players.

Thisnoise can be quite loud if the analog output is connected directly to ahigh power amplification system. Proper measures for playing thedigital output as described below should be taken to avoid thissituation. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround playback, an external 5.1channel DTS Digital Surround decoder system or an amplifier with abuilt-in DTS Digital Surround decoder must be connected to the digitaloutput (S/P DIF, AES/EBU or TosLink) of a CD, LD or DVD player.All models are incorporated with the DTS decoder.DTS has a .1 or LFE channel.The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is beinginput for this channel. £
