DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 is a digital audio format enabling high sound quality 
playback in 5.1-channels with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz and 24 
bit quantization on DVD-Video.
Neural Surround™, a breakthrough in audio technology, will bring the 
excitement of surround music to more of America’s listening audience. 
It provides the rich envelopment and discrete image detail of surround 
sound in a format 100 % compatible with stereo. With superior 
spectral resolution and channel separation, Neural Surround™ draws 
the brain’s attention to sonic details in musical instruments, vocals, 
and ambience that are typically masked by other playback systems. 
This allows the listener to fully experience the richness and subtleties 
in recorded performance as never before. As the chosen format for XM 
Satellite Radio’s new XM HD surround programming, Neural Surround 
will help deliver more surround music to more listeners than any other 
broadcast format. XM Satellite Radio will be the first radio company to 
broadcast surround sound on the radio 24 hours a day and will offer 
three channels fully dedicated to Neural Surround™ music. This alone 
will amount to more than 25,000 hours of Neural Surround™ music 
each year.
