and what about the LOTR EE DTS mix. Is it better then the EX Dolby mix?
I heared DTS is mostly better then Dolby because it's less compressed as Dolby. But it also depends a lot on who mixed the sound decoding. That's why Dolby somethimes sounds better then DTS. But normally DTS should sound better if it's mixed by right people. |

DTS is always better, and this is why i say this.
I've heard some good Dolby tracks and some bad ones. But in DTS, their always good. I've never heard a bad one. and i've watched a lot. DTS always sounds more impactfull. In my humble opinion anyway |

Dude,
I saw "Big Fish", and there's a scene where Ewan McGregor is looking into the cave where the giant is lurking, and when the Giant responde my wife and I totally shreiked.
Also, lots of the scenes near the end of "Shaun of the Dead."
And when Norman Osborn talks in the mirror with the Green Goblin in Spider-Man."
But I defer to DALE M WILEY and ANDY SUMMERS for better choices... |

The Incredibles is about as good as any. Most speakers couldnt even scratch the surface of the audio recorded on that DVD.

“The Incredibles” is that so, winner of this years Oscar for best sound effects editing
Randy Thom pictured to the right WOW that's Busting soundtrack? 
I’ll have to look around for this one, to add to the other “Randy Thom” mixes….

The first 15 minutes of Lord Of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring EE is one of the most powerful movie sequences I have ever heard at home, and never ceases to blow the socks off of anyone at my house. I also love the fight sequences in Gladiator, and The incredibles is indeed incredible on the ears. Terminator 2 EX also has very impressive audio video sounds and effects to tantalize friends. |

Most definitely Gladiator with DTS. Pretty much any movie with DTS will do the trick. |

I just got an Onkyo 6.1 system and use the F-18 SAM attack scene in Behind Enemy Lines on DTS, or the enterance shoot out scene in the Matrix. Both of those scenes really work the surrounds. Just my $0.02. |
