format

The

DTS

|

digital

format

and

can

not

be

decoded

inside

most

CD,

LD

or

players.

For

this

reason,

you

;

attempt

to

listen

to

DTS

encoded

software

through

the

analog

output

of

your

new

CD,

you

will

experience

digital

noise

in

most

cases.

This

noise

can

be

quite

loud

if

the

analog

output

is

connected

directly

to

a

high

power

amplification

system.

Proper

measures

for
