Cool Headphone surround and DTS movies.

My favorite surround sound equipment is Turtle Beach dss1. It takes a Dolby input and directly converts it to Dolby headphone and then transmits it over some radio type signal, (that's Adeline extra natively comes out as 3.5 mm L/R)

it does what it surround sound should do tell you exactly what direction everything is relative to your center. some people prefer Dynamic surround sound where you walking throughout the theater changes the perspective like in musical concerts where you can go closer to the violins or the drums or the guitars or whatever instruments you prefer to listen to separately, with five or more separate independent sound sources, headphones surrounds assumes you're the center of the surround effect.

The problem is 70% of my blu-rays are in DTS and that decoder does absolutely nothing to enhance them.

A few questions one on my Xbox One S I noticed my Dolby Atmos movies sound better with the Dolby headphone Atmos app. Should I buy the corresponding DTS app for DTS movies?

second does anyone else notice that the Dolby Atmos headphone app does not quite accurately translate pre-approved very well, that I should use the Turtle Beach instead for more accurate surround sound?

Third I noticed very few people have problems with this. I know I'm in the minority when 70% of my movies don't sound good yet 70% of the movies are using DTS. I'm not dissing on DTS to this on DTS but if I don't have proper DTS equipment how am I supposed to experience it correctly? And there's no way I'm going in debt just experience DTS the proper way. So it's either a headphone experience or nothing.

Last question why aren't there surround sound headphone apps for various smart Blu-Ray and Web movie players? My Sony UBP-X800 which can do 3D movies, unable to convert Dolby and DTS into some sort of headphone sound.

Finally I noticed Nintendo uses their own proprietary lpcm 7.1 to lpcm headphone converter. The only problem is the movie or game has to be encoded in lpcm 7.1, and my Turtle Beach device does not know how to deal with that. Yet when I take my switch on the road I could hear the surround sound well. is there a device so let me hear the switch in surround headphone mode while I'm at home? How do I tell if something is an lpcm 7.1 lpcm headphone converter?
