DTS Digital Surround has become the digital sound format preferred by audiences, film makers and exhibitors worldwide. DTS is the only 5.1 surround sound format that can deliver a revolutionary 3D experience through new music recordings on compact discs, original 5.1 soundtracks on motion picture laserdiscs and a wide variety of titles on DVD. The DTS system built into the Yamaha TSS-1 brings an exact copy of the studio master recordings to your PC.

Yamaha's exclusive YST (Active Servo Technology) generates incredible bass from small speaker enclosures; it's the ideal method of combining amplifiers and speakers for maximum performance. The YST system adjusts the negative impedance generation as the speaker moves, creating a hard, rigid cone that prevents deep resonant waves from leaking out. This means that the full bass wave power is forced out through the air port, resulting in clear, powerful bass.
