CMSS 3D is a technology that allows users to enjoy a multi-channel experience no matter what audio they are listening to. Any specifically encoded multi-channel content normally does not require CMSS 3D (multi -channel games supporting EAX®, Dolby® Digital or DTS encoded movies). However there are some circumstances where CMSS 3D can deliver audio that will amaze you!
┬╖ Normal stereo CD-Audio or MP3s/WMAs can be turned into incredible 7.1 music
┬╖ Old stereo encoded movies can be turned into a completely immersive 7.1 experience
┬╖ Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS 5.1 movies can be turned into 7.1 blockbusters!**
┬╖ Listening over two-channel speakers need not be boring! CMSS 3D can use stereo widening and virtual surround techniques to make the audio sound better than you could ever have imagined
┬╖ Headphone users are not left out either. Ever wanted a virtual multi-channel headphone experience? Well CMSS 3D delivers!
