After considerable research and thought on this subject I've come to the conlusion that allthough upmixes from stereo sources to dts disk can be very pleasant,...
... I haven't had much interest in upmixes for that reason, I don't see any way you can really make 2 into 4 with good results. It would be interesting if...
There are plenty of good up-mixes if you dig around. It all depends on the extraction process used. I can vouch that they are mostly better than plain DL II...

Which upmixes do you think are good? I certainly agree that it's pointless to do the software-based PLII -> dts upmix. One thing I'm curious about: dts as an...
Does anyone have ELO - First light? I came across it on another Yahoo DTS sight. Anyone know if there was a Q8 version of it. I assume it's SQ. See Below: ...

There's a quite a good Zappa _Hot Rats_, and a decent Radiohead _OK Computer_ floating around out there. Also there's a guy who is doing some pretty definitive...
Hey gang, The Talking Heads new DVD-A's are just plain great. Queen's 'A Night At The Opera' sounds great 5.1 DVD-A also. Tommy is good, remixed by Pete...

I got away from SQ as soon as I found DTS! I have WYWH in SQ, but you probably don't want it, I just recorded my LP directly, no noise or scratch reduction,...
... I know, what's the hold up? I go to the store and see just the same old selection as last time...though I did find a couple new things recently....but...
... On Brothers in Arms, if you like the album in plain old 2 channel (as I did), then the DVD-A is worth every penny, and then some. I'd have to say it's one...

What format is it? DTS? SQ? For SQ, just use any old CD player and your reciever. For DTS, I highly recomend a DVD-A player with a DTS decoder built in, and...
... Mine was just a plain 2 channel dump of the SQ incoded LP to a CD-R, probably before the DTS software was out. I asked DTS at one point about incoding and...
