What led to the introduction of DPL 11 and DTS Neo 6 decoders?
Up to recently Dolby Pro Logic decoders performed the multichannel decoding of audio information from a two channel, matrix-encoded analog signal. However discrete digital systems are superior to analog systems. The need to improve the reproduction of two channel matrix signals and to be able to perform multichannel reproduction of simple stereo signals led to the introduction of two new decoders. Dolby created the Dolby Pro Logic 11 decoder and DTS created the DTS NEO 6 decoder.
