DTS is absolutely great in comparison to AC3. But to fully
appreciate all of its benefits you're gonna need a hardware
DTS decoder

I've got this one and it sounds terrific:

Non-commercial software DTS decoding is far behind its
Dolby counterpart. You can set "WITH_DTS=3Dyes" and rebuild
mplayer to be able to (try and) play those movies.
