Product Details

DTS Symmetry for SHARC is an audio post-processing module developed by DTS Inc. for dynamically adjusting the audio gain to maintain the same level of perceived loudness for a stereo source without cause audible distortion. It is primarily designed for audio systems where the audio level of the source is highly variable.
