dts 5.1 = 6 discrete channels (l, r, c, rs, ls, sub)
dts-es 6.1 Matrix = 6 discrete channels plus a matrixed back surround (l, r, c, rs, ls, bs, sub)
dts=es 6.1 Discrete = 7 discrete channels (l, r, c, rs, ls, bs, sub)
dts neo:6 = uses a 2 channel input to derive/simulate 5.1 surround

- Try to understand DTS96/24 - SamL 18:09:34 12/15/02 (1)
  Reading the pdf file for DTS96/24 http://www.dtsonline.com/9624.pdf
  it stated that:
  *****
  DTS 96/24 offers the following:
  - Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.
  - Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing
  decoders will output a 48 kHz signal.)
  - No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in
  the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.
  - 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-motion video, for music
  programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.
  - 96/24 through the S/P-DIF output. DTS 96/24 allows the use of external,
  very high quality D/A converters and associated analog electronics
  chosen by the user.
  ***********
  Base on point number 2 & 3. I am reading that all current DVD player will be able to play DTS96/24 format DVD. Am I correct?
  What about the decoder or HT receiver. Will I need to have something that support DTS95/24 or any current player can do?
  TIA,
  Sam

    you will need a DTS 24/96 5.1 compatible decoder inside the processor. If you don't have a compatible processor, then you will get regular DTS 5.1 at 48kHz. This is what they mean by "backwards compatibility".

    Also Dolby pro logic II is simulating 2 seperate channel for the back. While Dolby pro logic just simulate one.
    And I think the matrix that separate the stereo channel to do surround sound is much more convincing overall with DPLII.
    Hope that helps

    Dolby Pro-Logic II now allows for the surround channels to be full range, instead of limiting them to 100 - 7kHz. The new version also applies "steering logic" to the surround channels in much the same way the three front channels are derived in the original Pro-Logic.
    Those who have heard Pro-Logic II say that it works better for music than the original Pro-Logic -- should you be interested in surround music.
    In my opinion, Pro-Logic II will benefit laserdisc material the most -- at least in my case. It has the advantage of using uncompressed PCM to create a more enveloping (as opposed to Dolby Digital) and directional (as opposed to Pro-Logic) soundfield for movies.
