I have to agree with Ruined, that when I have heard THX being demoed for me, I did not like the sonic result produced. I also find it hard to believe that people find DTS more overbearing than DD when I have found the complete opposite. I have a great sub and what I consider to be quality speakers (Mirage) so volume doesn't play a huge part in compromising how the movies sound on my system. There is clarity at low and high volumes, often times I find the DTS to be lower in volume on a DVD than DD. I have my system set to sound the best at higher volumes to get the most dynamic sound, so needless to say, I crank up the DTS pretty good without compromising quality of sound. DD I find breaks down at higher volumes and the quality of the timber is no longer present.

Ruined, what type of speakers are you running? Are they THX certified?
