The full form of DTS is "Digital Theatre Systems Format for Audio".

Concept:

  • DTS is a series of multichannel audio technologies owned by DTS, Inc., an American company specializing in digital surround sound formats used for both commercial/theatrical and consumer-grade applications. The technology is primarily used in surround sound systems, and importantly in film and video production, allowing for a more immersive audio experience than stereo or mono sound.
  • It is worth noting that in the realm of home theater, DTS is one of several formats designed to enable high-quality surround sound. Other competing technologies include Dolby Digital and Linear PCM.
  • DTS technology is widely adopted in a range of consumer electronics - such as home theater systems, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and video games - for its ability to provide high-quality multichannel audio that closely reproduces the original sound master.
