Hi RtingsUser1663562,
The Samsung HW-Q60C has support for DTS Virtual:X which is a sound virtualization feature that simulates a wider surround environment by up-mixing content to give the impression of additional surround and height speakers.
DTS:X is an audio codec that the HW-Q60C can’t output. Though, it can play DTS content and simulate a more immersive setup through the DTS Virtual:X digital enhancement.
Thanks, Matt
The ratings for the HW-Q60C states that DTS X is not supported. There is a DTS X logo imprinted on the back face of mine. Which is correct?
