In Reply to: DVD with Prologic--how much do you lose? posted by Dr. T on July 06, 2001 at 18:14:03:

In a word... a lot! specially if you not only compare pro-logic to DTS!.... In every single case that i have mistakingly left the DVD player playing simple dolby surround, it is immediatly noticeable when the audio comes on... On modern recordings, they have put all thier efforts into 5.1 either DD or DTS, since most movie theaters use the multi-channel format.

Having mono-surrounds and no LFE channel really takes away from the experience..... Remember, the trend is towards more and more channels...
