Is there any differences between Dolby Digital and DTS?
A. Dolby Digital has been selected as the default format for DVD video, standard 2 channel audio playback and HDTV Digital broadcasting. Dolby Digital features two independent surround channels giving same full range as the three front channels. Plus it adds a Low Frequency Effect channel LFE. Dolby Digital accomplishes this by using a technique called compression. Digital Theater Systems DTS uses the same concept but implements a lower compression rate. This supposedly leads to more dynamic range, improved channel separation, and more subtle nuances.
