Soundbars with DTS Virtual:X
prices on 24 modelsDTS Virtual:X
— a decoder to provide DTS X surround sound without using additional up-firing speakers on the soundbar. You can rely on just two channels and a separate subwoofer to achieve the desired DTS Virtual:X effect. Virtual 3D sound is achieved through special digital signal processing. The process tricks the users' ears into perceiving the presence of virtual speakers and gives a realistic acoustic experience. Of course, the digital processing can only work to a certain extent, and will be inferior to options with real height or upward-firing speakers. However, prices for devices with DTS Virtual:X support often differ in a more pleasant way.
