Yep. Thanks. Looks like a good one. Unfortunately I'm thinking it might have to wait until Christmas. Not that far off I guess. I have my Samsung BD set up to output DTS to my current Sony receiver, which understands and can deal with DTS. I can then select a TrueHD track and still get better sound (better than just the DD 5.1 track). I noticed a HUGE difference with Cars as an example switching between tracks. Still not TrueHD per se, but closer for now.
