It is one of those YMMV type of things though with some people not hearing much difference while others hear more differences depending on the movie.

Hope this helps!
Thanks PFC5. So if I buy a BP but put play my DVD collection on it, it will decode the sound no different then my current DVD player? The difference will only be heard when playing a Blu-ray disk?
