Blind Test Suggested PCM VS. Bitstream

[quetzalcoatl]

Well here is the first report. I tried it with what I think is the best TrueHD track out there Dave Matthews, which is 24/96. And this was just me and it is harder to compare since you cannot just hit the audio button to change tracks. You must stop the player and go into setup to change it to PCM. So after going through the first song twice I must say there is a small difference in the TrueHD bitstreamed or it PCM. Nowhere near as great as when you look at tracks that have both and switch between them. And this is not a good one to do it on since the PCM is only 24/48. The TrueHD bitstream seems to be brighter and with more seperation. It is not huge but seems to be there.

I will have to test this one on the PS3 and see how it sounds. But that will not happen tonight. Wife has already called it a night since she has to be up in the early am.
