I am just completing my home theater system and purchased among other things the Sony 7700 player to plug into the Sony STR50ES receiver. In my excitement I went to order some DVDs through
DVDExpress.com when I noticed that, for example,
Apollo 13 can be ordered in the DTS version or the
Dolby Digital 5.1 version. I realize these are
different theaterical formats but it appears that
DTS DVD will not play on non-DTS player. If this is so it would seem like I should purchase the 5.1 version since it is more universally compatiable. Is this correct? Is DTS that much better than 5.1? Any help you can provide would be appreciated.
