Was it ever decided whether or not the new R1 disc will have a DTS track? Many people I know say it will probably not, but I can't get a straight answer. Why is there nothing out there about this?

I, too, had to follow up with them on a charge dating from June. They finally credited me the 15%--after I explained the whole thing in detail. I'm glad it was so easy because I was expecting a big...

I would get the tv and dvd player--both great choices. I would upgrade the receiver, though. I'd look at Onkyo or Denon. Both very good choices. I like the Onkyo 696 and it is a very good...

Re: Hi-End Receiver w/AC-3?

That would be the RF demodulator. You can get one made by Yamaha or Sony for around 150. Check out the Onkyo 989. It has RF input and you should be able to pick one up for around 2200. I'd go...

I've got a dumb question. If I have AC-3 out on my ld player, what do I hook into on my receiver? My receiver (Onkyo txds-787) doesn't have AC-3 input. Do I go to a demodulator and then out of...

I'd also look for s-video out for high quality video. Mine doesn't have RF output. I kind of wish it did, but I'm really happy with Dolby Pro Logic on most and I've got a few in DTS. Not too bad. ...

You could do this, but would end up with inferior performance due to
a) the sound not being processed for a simulated rear center channel (sound would be the same as the two rears) and

Probably referring to a built in line doubler in the television, which would not be surprising at all. The old model didn't have this, so I would expect this is what he meant. It may even have 3-2...

Re: HDTV question - Which DVD player?
