DTS, Inc. launches a variation of it’s increasingly popular surround sound technology DTS-HD Master Audio, which delivers high definition audio that is bit for bit identical to the studio master. DTS-HD Master Audio Essential provides the same quality high-end sound that consumers have come to expect from DTS-HD Master Audio. DTS-HD Master Audio Essential will be a full Master Audio feature set for Blu-ray Disc, with the exception of DTS ES Matrix and NEO 6.
Although DTS-HD Master Audio Essential does not currently support DTS | 96 /24, DTS ES, ES Matrix, and DTS NEO 6, for standard DVD discs, DTS backwards compatibility makes it possible for you to automatically enjoy your DVD entertainment experience in high quality DTS Digital Surround.
Another option for you to enjoy full Master Audio would be to have your AV Receiver decode the bit stream. You can simply do this by changing the audio setup mode in your player to stream out over HDMI and let your receiver decode the DTS | 96 /24, DTS ES, ES Matrix, and DTS NEO 6 streams. Please reference your player user manual for details on audio setup.
