DTS audio technologies cover both “next gen” consoles and PC’s, meaning that no matter which platform you play on, you can enjoy DTS quality surround sound that elevates your gaming experience. Just check on the box for the DTS logo!

There are 2 technologies DTS provides for games: DTS Digital Surround and DTS Neural Surround.

DTS DIGITAL SURROUND

Supported in over 100 million consumer electronic devices, DTS Digital Surround is built into every PS3 gaming console. This means that every game developer has the ability to provide you with the highest quality 5.1 bitstream audio. All you need to do? Look for the DTS logo on the box and make sure your PS3 is set up to deliver the ultimate 5.1 gaming experience.

DTS NEURAL SURROUND

The DTS Neural Surround technology is designed to offer 7.1 audio from all gaming console and audio connections, from HDMI to stereo, PS3 to Wii! This innovative technology provides two extra rear audio channels to allow pinpoint placement of game audio. This puts you in the center of a 360 degree gaming experience, allowing you to know exactly where your opponent is at all times!

DTS Neural Surround is used by a number of Xbox 360, PS3, Wii and PC games.

Video Games 7.1

DTS works with game developers to include the DTS Neural Surround technology within their game where the technology runs as you play the game. All you need? A PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii, a game that supports DTS Neural Surround on that platform, a Home Theater Receiver that supports DTS Neural Surround, and a 7.1 speaker system. This combination of elements work together to provide 8 channels (Left, Center, Right, Surround Left, Surround Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Back Right, LFE) of game audio that you control interactively. Being truly immersed in the game audio not only aids in gameplay, but makes the game more fun!
