Star Wars Blu-ray Audio Problems

[ishwar1]

I have Star Wars the Complete Saga on Blu-ray and I hear audio clipping pops, crackle and static on audio channel 6 and audio channel 7 of my 7.1 surround system. My Blu-ray player is a Sony BDP-S780 (updated with Sony's latest firmware) and my receiver is a Sony STR-DA5300ES. When I switch the audio output on my Blu-ray player to PCM, the audio defects are gone but sound quality is noticably diminished. I will leave the audio output on my Blu-ray player set to Auto because the sound quality of the automatic DTS HD-Master Audio "flag" is superior to PCM. But 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment has got to fix these audio issues when the automatic DTS HD-Master Audio "flag" is used on all Blu-ray players when Star Wars Blu-rays are played. I've returned my Star Wars Saga to Best Buy for an exchange, but these audio problems still exist on the exchanged Blu-ray set. It was a long wait to see Star Wars on Blu-ray. Please let 20th Century Fox fix and replace our defective discs. If you are listening to the Star Wars complete Saga Blu-ray on a 5.1 surround system, you will not hear the audio defects. The audio clipping pops, crackle and static on heard only on 7.1 surround system. Specifically on audio channel 6 and audio channel 7. All other 6.1 and 7.1 Blu-rays in my collection sound fine without audio defects such as the Lord of the Rings Extended edition Blu-rays, the Expendables, Tron Legacy, and Rambo. This confirms that the audio issue does not exist in my equipment but exists only in the DTS-HD Master Audio of Star Wars The Complete Saga Blu-rays. This is especially noticable during the opening sequence "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away." There should be silence during this moment, but audio static and crackle is heard from audio channel 6 and audio channel 7.
