Extreme caution should be exercised when you play back CDs encoded in DTS.
If you play back a CD encoded in DTS on a DTS-incompatible CD player, you will only hear some unwanted noise that may damage 
your speakers. Check whether your CD player supports CDs encoded in DTS. Also, check the sound output level of your CD player 
before you play back a CD encoded in DTS.
