I notice that on DTS tracks, the subwoofer is MUCH more powerful, even to the point of being distracting. Also, the quiet parts are REALLY quiet and the loud parts are REALLY REALLY loud. The dialogue is so soft that you have to turn up the volume to hear it and when a loud part comes I have to quickly turn it down because I have neighbors, plus I fear it might damage my speakers.

i'm not sure what kind of DVD player you have but on mine if you go into the DVD player setup menu it has a "dolby digital setup" tab
and in there is a "dynamic range" setting that ajusts your "dynamic range compression"...most likely if you have this setting it is set to full....if you set this down some the "loud volume...soft volume" effect wont be nearly so dramatic
