  • Paramount brings DTS X home

    With its new Home Entertainment Releases Daddy's Home, The Big Short, Zoolander No. 2 and Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. These Blu-ray titles released over the past few months are the first Paramount titles to feature next-generation DTS:X immersive audio.

    DTS X competes with Dolby's ATMOS and the Auro 3D immersive audio technologies.

    DTS And Paramount have entered into an agreement to include DTS:X Audio in select releases. DTS:X is an advanced immersive, object-based, multi-dimensional audio technology available to enhance the home entertainment experience.

    DTS:X audio technology delivers a truly captivating entertainment experience in home theaters and sound bars, by accurately conveying the fluid movement of sound to create a richer soundscape than has previously been possible. DTS:X technology adapts to the speaker layout to best fit the individual consumer space by seamlessly transporting sound to and through specific locations within the viewing environment – in front of, behind, above and beside the audience.

    Paramount and DTS will also make a DTS Headphone:X track available via participating digital retailers. DTS Headphone:X puts listeners in the very center of the film's soundscape, creating an immersive experience that provides the best entertainment experience available through any headphones.

    "DTS is constantly innovating in order to offer consumers the best entertainment experience possible," said Bill Neighbors, general manager, digital media and streaming solutions at DTS, Inc. "DTS:X is our most recent, most advanced product offering, raising the bar for in-home entertainment. Consumers and content creators have higher expectations than ever and DTS:X will exceed the most demanding expectations."

    An AVR or sound bar with DTS:X technology is required for the full immersive audio experience. Denon, Marantz, Sony, Trinnov and Yamaha have delivered DTS:X to many of their AVR models via firmware updates. Throughout the year, several brands, including Acurus, Anthem, ARCAM, Integra, Krell, McIntosh, Onkyo, Outlaw Audio, Pioneer, Steinway Lyngdorf and Theta Digital/ATI will release DTS:X firmware updates to their AVRs. Additionally, Yamaha will deliver a firmware update to its YSP-5600 sound bar this summer.

    "Paramount continues to progress the entertainment experience for audiences at home," said Edward Hoxsie, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Product Production & Fulfillment, Paramount Pictures.  "Working with DTS, a leading contributor in sound innovation, allows us to deliver a great consumer experience with audio technology that enables the immersive audio our feature content deserves."
