(fax) Re: DTS 5.1 music - is it or isnt it ?

[mark dawes]

heck this is the first thing i have seen that has made me want to make a 
reply!

Please all excuse my ignorance about the faxlist thing...all i am wondering 
about is 'what are you listening on'? Downloads really are not 'hifi' in any 
sense of the term (high fidelity) as in reproducing the music as it should 
be(or the producer/musician)intended...

All the so called 5.1 realeases are in actual fact 4.1....The centre channel 
is not used...It is a dialogue channel so has zero relevance to music..In 
fact i can't comment on the .1 bit as my system goes below what subwoofers 
would reproduce...

Unless 320Kb is employed you don't stand a hope in hells chance...DTS (Dolby 
Theatre System)of getting a nice sound out of your system (for surround).

Martin thanks for all the great cds chap...Good luck with Air 5....If this 
all goes pear shaped let me know...

Trevor, you don't know anyone who purchases music digitally?  with Ipods so 
popular(go to your nearest gym), most people are getting their mp3s from the 
Apple store, or some other mp3 site on the web. With record stores closing 
left and right, most people who enjoy listening to music, do not buy cds, as 
much as they do mp3s. Would other people agree with me on this point?
