I have the new Manga release of Ghost in the Shell SE and can hear little, if anything, coming out of my subwoofer when I play either DTS tracks. The Dolby EX mixes are absolutely fine.
I have a high-end Yamaha receiver set up to THX specs (80 Hz) crossover - speakers set to large.
Has anyone else had trouble with this title?

I hope this isn't true. I just won myself a copy off of eBay recently, but I haven't removed the sealing yet. I'll wait until I can get confirmation.

I thought the mixes were fairly close. The DD5.1 seemed to have a tad more bass but the DTS seemed to have a fuller sound overall.
Of course there are 2 DTS6.1 tracks, 2 DD5.1 tracks and 4 DD2.0 tracks. That's a lot of audio!

I agree with Tom on this one. I did a lot of switching back and forth between the DD and DTS tracks. The DTS bass seemed a bit more subdued but overall, a richer audio experience.

Are you fellows mixing the low frequencies from your main speakers into your subwoofer or are you only directing the pure 0.1 channel into the sub as I do?

...I have a high-end Yamaha receiver...
Which DVD player are you using?

I've tried on three different players - Sony, Pioneer, and a Toshiba. The problem exists with every one of them. If I switch back and forth between the DTS and the Dolby EX tracks the difference is like night and day. There's definitely something wrong with the DTS sub track. I even tried a second receiver, a Kenwood, and observed exactly the same thing. I'm amazed no one has picked up on this in the reviews.

Don't know what to say. I don't have a high-end system but it's okay. I use bookshelf speakers for my fronts so, I'm pretty sure, I have all my LF going to the sub.
