Re: DTS HD Formats Question...


Okay, so I did a little reading, and from what I can tell, all id be missing is the ability to send the raw signal to the AVR. Therefore the decoding must take place in the PS3. If that's the case, no big deal, as long as it'll decode the good stuff. I found the most confusing chart iv ever seen on this subject and it really makes no sence at all to me. I will keep looking at this issue and hopefully i wont have to settle for decent when a 15 cent chip keeps me from great. I'm not too worried though, just that initial "cant do it" shock that got me sort of wound up. I havent really done the research I normally would have on the audio formats, so like most humans, what I dont understand frightens me, and I react to fear with anger. I'm still working on that whole human problem.
Anyhoo, what about these funky speaker arrangements on the DTS website? How do they get that to mesh with Dolby and THX?
