Upgraded to DD and DTS..........Good God!!!!

I`ve just upgraded from Pro-logic (an old Sony thingee) to a Set-up courtesy of Richer Sounds. I won`t bore you with the gory details, but suffice to say i`ve ended up with a set of Gale Moviestar 5`s (not the inferior 3`s) for only £20! (Don`t ask...) and a Sherwood RD6103R DTS/DD receiver for £179.99. The speakers are 2 big floorstanders, a dedicated matching centre and a matching pair of smaller rears, all finished in a smart cherry beech colour, original price £250, Richer price £120.............but a bargain at £20!! (come on, wake up at the back there!) Anyway to cut a long story only slightly shorter, a quick play of some DTS disks including Jurassic Park III, revealed some frighteningly good transients and unbelievably deep, earth-shuddering bass. I`ve struck a pre-emptive strike with an apology to the neighbours, and the offer of a movie night, complete with drinks etc!! Anyway, to finish, one small observation. Dolby Digital is brilliant, but DTS is THE DADDY!!!!!!!

I like my Pro Logic..........sulks in corner and counts his money (oooh, ten pence short!).

You can still find the Videologic Digitheatre DTS for around £350 if you look. My local Alders had a couple in stock recently.
