I thought you'd enjoy these words I found in the Marantz SR18 receiver service manual: --- DTS An amazing new technology for surround-sound entertainment, DTS Digital Surround is an encode/decode system that delivers six channels (5.1) of master-quality, 20-bit audio. ........SNIP .......Each of these six channels is audibly superior to the linear PCM audio found on conventional compact discs. --- Hmmm. A (long) while back a reviewer described an amplifier as having an "orange peal" sound. ----------------------------------------------------------- SPAM: wordgame:123(abc):14 9 20 5 2 9 18 4 at 22 15 9 3 5 14 5 20 dot 3 15 13 (Barry Mann) [sorry about the puzzle, SPAMers are ruining my mailbox] ----------------------------------------------------------- |
