    A good DVD title to test your DTS system with

    Hi guys,

    Keep forgetting to post this, but it's just come to me after a gallon of coffee.

    There are several films which use DTS to much better effect than Dolby Digital, including House of the Flying Daggers... but a suprisingly well edited audio track (film, not music) is a Rowan Atkinson film!

    Johnny English.

    And for a fiver, even if you don't wanna see it, now you've got an excuse.

    So, well positioned audio for the action sequences, good atmosphere and a couple of bass box wobblers

    of course, and I've owned it and enjoyed it several times, but only on my telly in the livingroom, an old 28" with no surround system.

    But Sair and I fancied a film last week, in our little cinema room, and chose this and the DTS blew me away
