I guess Ultra is name of app, and the other two are the names of individual technologies that are supported by app

My speakers have DTS, wonder if its same as X or an older version? guess now I have questions

I found a similar thing too. My speaker is from the early 2000 but it supports DTS(as reported by Windows) . I have also read somewhere that it will not be limited to 5.1 and 7.1 devices, all devices will support it. Therefore I think your speaker is using DTS X as it is not a headphone. Even if it is not compatible with DTS, the Unbound Surround app will bring in the compatibility

I have these, DTS is in the 1st feature block.

Meanwhile I used the Windows Sonic app today for spartialization and it worked. I was playing PUBG then. Might have to compare if Sound Unbound bring compatibility for this game
