DTS EMPIRICAL TEST DISC
Tests #1 through #35 will play automatically. For a specific test, wait for the announcement, then select the desired test number on
the
TIMECODE HEAD OFFSET
rotary switches (located behind the player's front panel access cover). Be sure to write down the
current offset setting before your selection is made and restore the setting for proper DTS movie playback. NOTE: *Some of
these test signals may cause serious damage to sound systems that are not properly designed to reproduce the extended
dynamic range of a digitally-based sound storage system.
