About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (DSX)
Audyssey DSX is a scalable surround expansion system that adds new
channels to improve the surround impression. Based on research in
human hearing DSX adds a pair of Wide channels in the front because
that information is critical in the rendering of a realistic soundstage.
DSX then adds a pair of Height channels above the main front channels
to reproduce the next most important acoustical and perceptual cues
related to soundstage depth. In addition to creating these new channels,
DSX applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the blend
between the front and side/back surround channels. The result is a much
more seamless and enveloping home theater experience.

About Dynamic Volume
Audyssey Dynamic Volume™ solves the problem of large variations in
volume level between television programs, commercials, and between
the soft and loud passages of movies.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ™ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that
as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass
response, tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity remain
the same.
