Jan 02, 2019 Most surround receivers have modes that can do great things with a stereo CD to make 5.1 out of it. Dolby Prologic II was a great leap in this regard and is often very successful. DTS has NEO modes that do this as well. This DTS 5.1 CD will play on any DVD or BluRay player. And as long as you connect the player to the amp using a digital HDMI, Coaxial Digital or Fiber Optic cable, any of the DTS 5.1 CD's will deliver full 5.1 surround channels. An important note. The surround amp must be capable of decoding the DTS soundtrack format from movies. For dts 5.1 cd playback, the output frequency in the music audio options has to be set to 441/176.4 KHz, and not 48 KHz. Thanks for the tips. The DTS 5.1 Music Disc was a Compact Disc format offering surround sound audio, usually in the 5.1 configuration. The discs would play in a standard Compact Disc player, but without the use of a DTS decoder all that would be heard is white noise. The potential confusion between DTS 5.1 Music Discs and standard Compact Discs meant some retailers were reluctant to stock them.
Hey Armidge. It really is best to try and keep HI FI and Surround sound systems separate if at all possible.
I bought a seperate all in one, Sony blu ray surround system ( purely for Pete's DTS discs, but dont tell my wife that ;-) ) The DTS 5.1 FAX sounds just amazing on this. If you dont want to go with the all in one solution you are talking Bluray or DVD player, homecinema av amp, 5/7 speakers all purchased and researched separately. Will give amazing sound but a lot of hassle.
I have never come across a CD player that would play DTS discs in 5.1.
What about getting a separate, smallish, mini system for your CDs, some good stuff available fairly cheaply from the likes of Onkyo, Pioneer, Denon etc. Although I have just checked there and my Sony surround also plays normal CDs and you can set up the speakers to be just stereo. This would never be as good as my main hifi separates though, but it is possible.
All depends on your overall budget and which country you are in I suppose. Good luck and it is DEFINTELY worth playing FAX in DTS. Pete was a real fan of that sound and I can totally understand why.
PS CD multiplayers tend to be of poor mechanical transport and sound quality I believe. Best to go for a single proper job.

The DTS Music Disc (official name),[1]DTS Audio CD or 5.1 Music Disc is an audio Compact Disc that contains music in one of various possible surround sound configurations. The specification permits discrete channel configurations from 2.0 (L, R) to 6.1 (L, R, C, LFE, Ls, Rs, Cs), although 5.1 (L, R, C, LFE, Ls, Rs) is the most common. Physically, a DTS Music Disc conforms to the Red Book standard; however a DTS bitstream, based on the Coherent Acoustics compression algorithm, is actually encapsulated in each PCM audio track. This configuration permits any non-DTS enabled player to output multi-channel audio when connected to an external DTS-compliant processor (e.g. a typical AV receiver) via a digital interface like S/PDIF or HDMI, provided that the player does not modify the bitstream internally.

Although the DTS audio track is read at the same fixed bitrate as 16-bit linear PCM (1,411 kbit/s) only 14 bits (1,234 kbit/s) are used for the encoded data stream; the remaining two bits are always zeros. This has the effect of attenuating the noise that would result (by roughly 12 dB) should one attempt to play a DTS Music Disc with a non-DTS system,[citation needed] and thereby reducing the chance of speaker damage. However this is a non-issue for players with internal DTS decoders, such as some DVD-Audio and Blu-ray players; these devices will output a properly decoded audio signal through their analogue ports.
Although all compliant DTS decoders support surround configurations of up to 5.1 channels, a DTS ES decoder must be used to fully decode discs with 6.0 or 6.1 channels of audio. DTS ES comes in two flavors: DTS ES Matrix and DTS ES Discrete. Depending on the disc and decoder used the Cs (center surround) channel will either be derived from the Ls and Rs of a conventional 5.1 track via matrix decoding, or exist as a fully discrete digital extension to a 5.0 or 5.1 core. In either case, backward compatibility is maintained with non-ES decoders.
