Werewuf, I just wanted to make sure we agree on the following basics of this audio conversion:
1) Both DolbyTHD and DTS-HDMA are simply compressing the original master PCM audio track with the purpose of decreasing the file size. When decoded (regardless by player of by a receiver) the output signal is again in PCM format.
2) DolbyTHD or DTS-HDMA do not "improve" PCM signal, they only "losslessly" compress the PCM signal. Therefore, any improvement of a DolbyTHD or DTS-HDMA over a PCM track I can only attribute to one factor: the original master PCM file was of a higher resolution that the PCM track recorded on the disc.
