DOLBY decoder --- PLIIx, DD, DD-EX
DTS decoder --- DTS, ES, NEO6, 96/24

The 606 has:
DOLBY decoder --- DD Plus, TrueHD
DTS decoder --- DTS-HD Master Audio

So being ignorant, I might say "well... the S5100 has more decoder possibilities"... but you guys in this forum have spoken highly of the 606, so that must not be as important...

I've got a Panasonic BD35 Blu-ray, and the XBOX 360 w/HDMI using the Sony SXRD 55" and using HDMI cables throughout.

What are the pros/cons of the different decoders with that setup?

Thanks!
