DTS HD sound

Posted by AlpinaM3 on December 5, 2008 at 18:18:45:
I hooked up a Sony BX1 BD player that I got from Costco on Black Friday. I have a 52 inch Toshiba 120 Hz display and the BD is connected to it via HDMI. My Reciever is the Yamaha Rx-v730 that I use with pre-amp outs to a stand alone amp. I checked the Yamaha manual and it says that it will process 96Khz/24 bit signals. All the proper switches are set to digital and the Yamaha is operating though a coax digital cable. Everything appears to work fine; the DTS Digital lights come one, LFE good and it all sounds better than regular DVD 5.1 or 6.1 sound. My question is how much more will I hear with a processor/reciever with HDMI connection to get the DTS HD format? Is is just format? or more? Thanks.
