It’s very different from the Dolby up mixer. It clearly uses the front height speakers while Dolby doesn’t. Click to expand... Well they both use the heights. But DTSnx extracts different sounds from the soundtrack to apply to them than DSU does. IME, with four in ceiling top speakers, DTSnx can sometimes seem too aggressive with what it places there. Many times it’s music that gets put there which sounds unnatural to me. If I were testing in your room, I would bump the level of your front heights and try DSU some more. To me it’s more natural, but can sound boring compared to DTSnx. Especially when people want to hear all those speakers work. I felt that way at first. But I played the long game in listening to tons of different content over time and found that I’m often surprised at how much I like DSU. I do use DTSnx periodically just for fun though too.
