I was not going to respond to this thread because I believe that you are totally right tomdkat when you say that it really is preference to how it sounds to your ears. I have always found that DD is very directional...sounds coming out of each speaker clearly defined but I prefer the sound field that DTS provides which is more seamless on my system. And that could be another point that one takes into consideration, system set up. I find that sound fields that my amp provides are handled well by DD but I prefer no DSP on my DTS. I like it the way that the DVD has provided the sound and prefer it to be unenhanced. In regards to systems, maybe a person with an 8 or 10 inch sub can't really tell the difference between the deeper bass in DTS vs DD. I really couldn't until I had the 12 and then....heaven!

Just my humble thoughts
