In Reply to: DTS vs Dolby Digital for DVD-A music. Newbie Questions. posted by AbeCollins on February 28, 2004 at 13:19:54:
"2) I'm hearing multi-channel 'surround sound' in either Dolby Digital or DTS so what would be the advantage of using analog interconnects from the DVD-A player to the receiver - vs the single coaxial digital cable?"With the analog outputs, you have the potential advantage of the higher resolution of the DVD-A tracks over the compressed DD or DTS tracks. Whether, in practice, this will result in a subjectively better experience depends on you, your equipment and the setup. In my experience, there is an advantage.

Thanks Kal - I don't have a quality analog multichannel preamp, just the A/V receiver. It might be interesting to try the digital input vs running 5 analog interconnects but I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle.... Maybe in a couple years when everything is going over a single IEEE-1394 'Firewire' we won't have to be concerned with choices. As an 'audiophile', two interconnects and 2-channel stereo are wonderful but I'm getting really tired of the nest of cables I have to deal with for the HT. ;-)
