About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (A-DSX)
Audyssey DSX® is a scalable system that adds new speakers to
improve surround impression. Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey
DSX® first adds Wide channels for the biggest impact on envelopment.
Research in human hearing has proven that information from the
Wide channels is much more critical in the presentation of a realistic
soundstage than the Back Surround channels found in traditional 7.1
systems. Audyssey DSX® then creates a pair of Height channels to
reproduce the next most important acoustical and perceptual cues.
In addition to these new Wide and Height channels, Audyssey DSX®
applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the blend
between the front and surround channels.
