On April 15th, Sony will release yet another firmware update for the PlayStation 3. This one will probably interest you if you’re an audiophile and have a nice surround sound setup in your living room.
Firmware version 2.3 will add support for the DTS-HD Master Audio (MA) and DTS-HD High Resolution (HR). This update, along with the recent BD-Live firmware update, allows the PS3 to play all Blu-ray titles at their fullest potential.
Brian Towne of DTS commented, “We are extremely pleased that [Sony] is adding the full spectrum premium DTS-HD Master Audio codec into the PS3 so that more than 10 million owners of one of the best selling computer entertainment systems can have the best sounding, most efficient and flexible audio technology available system as well. DTS-HD Master Audio is fast becoming the must-have feature for high definition entertainment enthusiasts.”
