PS3 Problem HELP!!

Hey neos, just to let you know with the Onlyo's if you set it to say DOLBY or DTS, DOLBY TRUE HD, DTS MASTR, etc. Your not getting a direct audio feed of what's on the disc. You want the Onkyo to be set to DIRECT if it's set to BITSTREAM you'll see it light up on the receiver's OSD, By doing the other stuff your using a sound enhancer which actually to me makes it sound worse and you should really never add enhancement with a lossless bitstream, by doing so you're kind of defeating the purpose of bitstreaming lossless audio if you're going to add foreign sound enhancement to the track you're not hearing it the way the director intended. It's the same principle as when the movie prouction companies add edge enhancement or DNR to the pic of a blu which essentially makes the image show artifacts, or look softer then intended. Just letting you know but if your happy with how it sounds that's all that matters.

My lights do light up if the track is set to DTS master thats what my display shows. same as the display when I hit dsiplay on my PS3 remote. So as far as hearing it the way the director intended I believe I am.

by the way my onkyo doesn't have a"direct" setting. Unless youd like to clue me in on what your talking about.
