Dts?

**burdette** · 07-29-2002 12:40 PM

We got our first DVD player earlier this year, and have to this point purchased about 35 DVDs. We also regularly rent.

I looked through our collection last night and didn't see one, not one, that was labeled DTS.

Given that my system and setup is a compromise between "best location" vs. life and kids and all that, I don't know that I would be able to discern subtle differences between DTS from DD, but my receiver is new and I have yet to see that "DTS" light go on...

What DTS DVD would you recommend to check this feature out?

Pearl Harbor has DTS and is great in DD, but I can't listen to dts mode because my Cal Audio does not have that decoder. I'm looking for a new DVD thats progressive scan and does all the dvd, cd types....

Saving Private Ryan
Moulin Rouge
The Time Machine
Planet of the Apes
Pearl Harbor
Apollo 13
Galaxy Quest
Daylight
Jurassic Park Trilogy
SW: The Phantom Menace

Just to name a few of the good ones.

Peace Out~:D

I personally think the best movie in DTS is the "fast an the furious" and "behind enemy lines" F&F is definitely a no brain movie, but sound wise it just plain kicks ass. BEL I thought the explosions were very very good, and the SAM part of the movie is some of the best I have heard.

I have pearl harbor I have yet to listen to it in DTS because I dont have 3+ hours to watch a movie.

Some other DTS movies

Unbreakable
Gladiator
Seven (Platinum Series)
Terminator 2 (Ultimate edition)
Coyote Ugly
Remember the Titans

Saving Private Ryan
Moulin Rouge
The Time Machine
Planet of the Apes
Pearl Harbor
Apollo 13
Galaxy Quest
Daylight
Jurassic Park Trilogy
SW: The Phantom Menace

Thanks for the suggestions... we've seen most of those, but NOT since upgrading to the new setup. And, surprisingly, we don't own any of them yet (although my wife thought Moulin Rouge would be a good addition). I'm glad to see this list... as a WWII buff (and sappy movie critic) from way way back.. I just don't think I could have sat through Pearl Harbor again.

My bad on SW:TPM, no dts track only dd, but...a dd track that will give any dts track a run for it's money.

Peace Out~:D

I still wish TPM had a DTS track. I have to crank up the volume way high to hear it decently. Usually with the DTS movies I have, I have to turn down the volume.

The Haunting - it's DTS 6.1 only. Holy cow does this DVD pack a motherlode of deep, menacing, ultrapowerful bass. The "coming mother" scene will knock you out of the room if your sub is up to the task. Special effects are very good also.

Doc I can not find the Haunting in DTS only in DD. What version is it on? Collectors, directors, or standard?

**scottvamp** · 07-30-2002 01:05 PM

I also have the Haunting and it is not in DTS and I have yet to see a version that is. But my DD version sounds pretty amazing.:D

**Dr. Spec** · 07-31-2002 09:21 PM

The Haunting "Signature Selection" - 2000 DreamWorks single DVD.

DVD bar code is 6 67068-4821-2 6

DTS ES 6.1 - bass is AMAZING.............

Check the DTS website - they have a list of all their releases.

**briancs** · 08-02-2002 01:15 AM

She is quite cool! Leaves me to my buisiness and stays with hers. Much better than the wife. Marriage should be a thing of the past. Well it is for me anyway.
