Ghost in the Shell SE - DTS defective?
 

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?

Damn,i just bought this DVD like 2 hours ago,hopefully mine isn't defective.

Please re-use your original post!

I never got an answer the first time. I thought it was worth a second attempt

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?

Which DVD player are you using?

well, if DTS aint working the Dolby Digital sounds fine to me. No matter what youn virtually use, this DVD sounds great.

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.
