Since many early Blu Ray titles have nice uncompressed PCM tracks, all these dueling audio codecs seem unnecessary.  But they had to find a way to make my less than five year old receiver obsolete didn't they? ;)

I can hear the difference between Dolby Digital and DTS on DVD, but hearing any subtle differences on Blu hasn't happened for me yet.

Do you happen to have Star Trek Generations or Saving Private Ryan on special edition DVD?

I did a listening test of each channel one at time and noticed what seamed like some sly re-mixing in level of some frequencies. I got feed up with dts on both and used Dolby

Or has Han would say about dts LOL

“It’s all a lot of simple tricks nonsense.”

I’m still running an old AVR that supports Dolby digital /Pro-logic II and dts.

Even Pro-Logic II adds a bit more crosstalk on the surrounds while doing sod all difference to the LCR, fake stereo surrounds from monaural matrix okay not bad attempt I was hoping for something really impressive at the time of reading about Pro-Logic II wow took me only day to suss it out, I don’t even use Pro-Logic II on Dolby stereo matrix 4.2.4 down-mixing or if film comes with Dolby 4.2.4 I have to manually select Dolby Pro-Logic as the AVR always selects Pro-Logic II sigh.
