RE: DTS vs AC3 Opinions

I`ve got the Jackal, which has both a DTS and DD audio streams, plus about four other DTS DVD`s.

I tend to find that the actual quality of the audio is very similar with very little clarity improvement on the DTS side.

What does seem apparent is that the effects and depth are `wound up` on DTS DVD`s to give a perception of more detail.

Saying that, I still buy a DVD in DTS over DD if it is available.

RE: What is the best way to connect a DVD player to the Amp?

The Sony 930 doesn`t have any on-screen functions, so connecting the video of your DVD player through the amp will result in a loss of quality, so connect that directly to the TV via an all pins wired screened SCART cable.

As far as audio is concerned, optical is always the best quality, but you will be hard-pushed to find a 7 metre TOSLink cable, failing this go for a digital coaxial cable. There is no point in connecting the stereo outputs of your DVD-player through the amp as CD audio and Pro-logic DVD`s will still be transfered to the amp via the digital connector.

http://www.techtronics.com is a good source for cables and may even be able to produce an optical cable to order.
