--> 04-10-2008 News: Sony announces arrival of DTS HD Master Audio in PS3 <--

PS3 Logo  In an unexpected announcement earlier today, Sony has announced that it's Playstation 3 console will receive another update on Tuesday, April 15th. Dubbed the v2.30 update, The PS3 will get its new PLAYSTATION Store browser and support for DTS HD Master Audio decoding on equipped Blu-ray discs! Support for DTS HD MA in the Playstation 3 has been long awaited by many audiophiles and this news brings great relief to many people.

 Some users of DTS HD Master Audio have reported loud pops in the soundtracks of certain Blu-rays while outputting the track via bitsream to capable Onkyo and Yamaha receivers. Playstation 3 users should not need to worry about this problem though as the system internally decodes these tracks and outputs them via PCM to your receiver. Updates to fix this problem should be available for your receiver should you ever want to future proof your set up for a standalone player.
