Auxinput: I have both, just checking to see if anyone thought there’s a difference between the Bluray & DVD audio.
Home theater.... As an audience we’re lucky if they get the production mix of stereo right. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve come tracked down a group in a soundtrack that was well produced, only to find out that the rest of their material is garage band stuff. The movie Roadhouse - Jeff Healey band is an example.
DVD movie titles have me running out of batteries in the remote as they play stupid games with the audio. Home theater is 5.1 more ways for hollywood to screw up. I wouldn’t bother with home theater video if it were’t for exceptional movies that come along once or twice a year. Mostly it’s an excuse to have more speaker sizes and a really, really, really, really good 40" 4K IPS monitor. If I were to sum things up, detail, accuracy and power work for me. That lets the source do its thing w/o any barriers. Engineering joke: speed, cost, quality: choose two.
