Re: Have you heard a difference between DTS & Dolby Digital?

208.240.143.196

When I've watched a DVD with both, I seem to like DTS better. However, I have no way to know if equal care was put in to both. I sustect not since DTS appears to fall into the category of a "premium feature". Also, according to someone posting an AR, DD uses a technique called "dialog normalization" -- the idea is sort of gain riding the difference between the dialog and non-dialog content in order to make the dialog easier ti hear. This makes a direct comparrisson very difficult even if someone produced a disc expressly for ABX testing!
