A great deal of comment is made about the hyperbole surrounding the
advertising copy for many high end audio products. Some of this hyperbole
makes some sense. Much does not. Much deserves to be criticised accordingly.
However, we rarely see comments about mass market products. I thought you'd
enjoy these words I found in the Marantz SR18 receiver service manual:

---
DTS
An amazing new technology for surround-sound entertainment, DTS Digital
Surround is an encode/decode system that delivers six channels (5.1) of
master-quality, 20-bit audio. ........SNIP
.......Each of these six channels is audibly superior to the linear PCM audio
found on conventional compact discs.

Hmmm.
