Peter : I would suggest that this thread has run its course and has shown a good level of debate but that we are starting to repeat ourselves. I have been asked to close the thread and will do in 24 hours if there is no objection. That's a slightly sad situation Peter. This board ought to be self-regulated and this is still a fairly popular debate

"At the moment the PS3 cannot decode DTS-HD but it can do Dolby True HD sound. However, the PS3 will decode DD True HD internally and send it as PCM, which is basically the same thing, when connected to the Amp by HDMI cable. You will not get HD sound from a optical connection as optical does not have the bandwidth to cope with the HD signal. Have

Dude1: The Avant, BV5 and BV9 use wood in their manufacture, this is biodegradable and recyclable And some of the Lab speakers, such as the 7.2

Razlaw: You need a Blu-Ray player that does the decoding. The player will decode the DTS-HD and send it as uncompressed PCM. All three formats are lossless. The HD formats are merely ways of storing the lossles format in less space on the disc. Which is something that the PS3 will do, I'm assuming. I still don't understand why B&O answered

Razlaw: moxxey: Can someone answer my question in regards to how do we received uncompressed PCM if a Blu-ray such as Rambo only supports DTS-HD or Dolby Digital? Surely if the Blu-ray doesn't ship with an uncompressed PCM track, we won't receive HD audio? You need a Blu-Ray player that does the decoding. The player will decode the DTS-HD and

Can someone answer my question in regards to how do we received uncompressed PCM if a Blu-ray such as Rambo only supports DTS-HD or Dolby Digital? Surely if the Blu-ray doesn't ship with an uncompressed PCM track, we won't receive HD audio?

beopaul: 355f, I think we should stop talking about DTS MA and TRUE HD. They're only relevant.. Ok, correct me if I'm wrong here, but if a Blu-ray only supports DTS-HD and Dolby Digital (think Rambo), then what on earth is the output? There's no uncompressed PCM on this Blu-ray (as isn't on many..). As we know DTS-HD requires HDMI 1

Keith, didn't Roger conclude that the 'corrected' version does not contain a fix or an update? ie. it certainly doesn't fix the switching off issues.

Alex: Plasma seems to produce a softer image than LCD, simply due to the technology and as a result, does a small, but slightly noticeably better job than LCD with standard definition. There's not much in it, but it's enough that it disguises the DVD compression bi-product. Generally though, LCDs on the market are either way too soft, or so

martin01: Moxxey: if you read all the answers from B&O, it will also say that BS3 handle Multichannel PCM at all channels and it also handle 96khz/24 bit . So no downconversion at any way. So maybe we should be happy now and enjoy our BS3/Bv7 with both sound and picture-quality. Martin, I already have an answer from B&O and it's from a source
