... pretty awesome sound track although I'm not a fan of this type of mumbo jumbo.The movies I appreciate most have great stories with believable characters, well acted, and subtle soundtracks that add to the movie atmosphere. Low key ones like "You've Got Mail" are what my wife & I enjoy most. Maybe the situations are a bit contrived but top actors can get away with it.
Isn't HT great? I feel sorry for those snobby dyed in the wool 2 channel addicts who look down on HT as if it is a blot on the purity of the audio landscape. They do not know what they are missing out on and will not be told.
Cheers

I am one of the very few lucky dogs out there who can afford or manage to own two dedicated systems under one roof; one is a two channel and another is h/t is what I meant. As an audiophile or videophile myself, I've learned over the years that you cannot mix and match both sounds into one without pretty big sonic compromises. No matter how good your pre/pro may be sonically it cannot match or compare to, say class A preamp let it be tubed or ss. I will continue to enjoy keeping two systems until that day when everything is literally controlled by Fire-wire IEEE1394, all the way from source to transducer. Until that day, drop in one of my favorites SCDs into my SACD1, dim out the lights and ah....
Take care
