Indeed. I played Batman Forever with professional amps and was knocked back by the DVDs DTS track. Then I played it on my own tinkered with rig and noticed things I didn't like. Then I tried the LD and found the 5.1 ac3 clearer and perhaps too discrete. The Dolby Surround PCM however is outstanding.

Goldeneye-UE DVD is loud and disappointing in both Dolby and DTS 5.1 but the LD Dolby surround was incredibly improved over those. Then the ac3 track blew that away in dynamics (which I was stunned to find, especially at 384 kbp/s compared to PCM). Damn what a great mix. If I ever find the DTS LD, then it's going to get very loud in here. ;)

I'm still stunned at how bombastic and wonderful LD ac3 sounds. I always thought that being at such a low bitrate would impair the sound quality, but it really doesn't.
