Thrustmaster T510
Dolby Digital 5.1 Decoder
+ Dolby Headphone
The only portable Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound decoder!

The T510 Dolby Digital 5.1 Decoder + Dolby Headphone , the first portable decoder and headphone set with certified Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and Dolby Headphone technologies.

The three major games consoles - Playstation 2, Xbox, Gamecube - all support the product, and in addition the portable unit is compatible with PCs, Macs and DVD players with digital S/PDIF outputs with dolby pass through. Wherever you want a surround sound experience but don’t want to disturb the neighbours or keep family members awake late at night, the T510 can deliver crystal clear surround sound, placing you right in the centre of the action. Stunning 5.1-channel sound is delivered with the Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and Dolby Headphone technologies included in the unit.

The T510 is sold as a complete solution, with a set of incredibly comfortable headphones, a pocket-sized decoder, which includes Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and Dolby Headphone, and the cables required to get a true surround sound effect from the headphones, whether they are attached to your games console, your PC, Mac or your DVD player.

Included with the T510 are standard optical cables for Playstation 2 and PCs, RCA cable and specific optical cable for the XBox. The decoder, which is small enough to fit into one hand, includes 2 AAA rechargeable batteries, so you never have to worry about batteries running out. Should you wish to share the experience with a friend, but not the baby, dog, and next-door neighbour, you can simply use the additional port to plug in any set of normal headphones and achieve the same immersive effect.

Note: If your PC has not got a optical digital out (S/PDIF) with dolby pass through you will require an Audio Advantage or similar.

Glossary

Dolby Digital
Dolby® Digital brings the cinema experience to the home, surrounding the listener with sound and drawing them right into the centre of the action. It is the audio format of choice for most movie studios and can be heard in tens of thousands of cinemas worldwide. The film director and his sound team create a sound mix where up to 5.1 discrete channels of audio are created, which are then replayed either in the cinema or in the living room via DVD or some television broadcasts. The three front channels deliver crisp, clean dialogue and accurate placement of on-screen sounds, while twin surround channels wrap around the audience and immerse them in the world of the film. The LFE (low frequency effects or the .1 of 5.1) delivers real impact through the subwoofer for explosions and other effects that can literally be felt as well as heard.

Dolby Digital is the audio standard on the Microsoft XBox™.

Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby® Pro Logic® II transforms any stereo source into a highly realistic and convincing surround sound listening experience. The technology recognises and unlocks directional clues in the source material, delivering a five-channel output. A surround mix can be created from radio and television broadcasts, digital music such as MP3 and AAC, CDs, video cassettes etc, revealing the hidden magic in your existing entertainment collection.

Dolby Pro Logic II is featured on the Sony PlayStation® 2 and Nintendo GameCube™, and in well over 100 game titles.

Dolby Headphone
Dolby® Headphone is a technology included in selected hardware devices which, when any pair of headphones is plugged in, creates a realistic surround sound experience. Listening is “out of head” and feels open and pleasant, avoiding listener fatigue which occurs when watching an entire DVD or listening to a whole album through headphones. It’s ideal for those occasions when the other occupants of your house are asleep, when watching DVDs on the move on a laptop, or simply when you don’t want to disturb the neighbours!
