AV Rant #428: DTS Meh
This week we thank Lior for the donation and Paul for enabling Rob’s addiction. Thanks! DTS announced their object-based surround format this week and we were underwhelmed at the amount of information (LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, and LINK). Hopefully we’ll know more soon. Barney has some questions about the future of OLED, Augustine needs help shopping for electrostatic speakers (LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, and LINK), and Allen has a weird problem with his center channel output on his Denon receiver. Justin needs a “foolproof” system for a friend (LINK and LINK), Nick is having issues with his HTPC, and Aaron is looking for a mate for his ATI amp (LINK). Barney is wondering if analog connections are better than HDMI (as he’s read), Efrain and Richard have a few comments on tubes (LINK and LINK), and Alan needs subwoofer help. We get updates from Bryon about his Sharp TV, Adrian about his experiences with Beats! headphones, and Jason on vintage gear (complete with pros and cons). Infinite Gary has some more questions about the ATSC 3.0 broadcast standard (LINK and LINK), John is looking for speaker wire, and Anonymous wants to know about where to shop online in Canada (LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, LINK, and LINK). Thanks for listening. Now, don't forget to:
