DTS-HD Master Audio / Dolby TrueHD / PCM 5.1

So far, I heard DTS-HD Master Audio and it sounded very intense and realistic in Quantum of Solace (James Bond). I have not heard Dolby TrueHD yet and I heard it suppose to sound just as good. There is another sound format called PCM 5.1 and that suppse to sound good as well.

Is there much of a difference in:

- DTS-HD Master Audio

- Dolby TrueHD

- PCM 5.1

Which do you prefer is the BEST sound of the 3 listed above?

You listed them in the order of my preference.

As far as your DVD player, the audio will sound best through the coax or toslink, not the HDMI. Your Bluray player will however sound best when playing the high-rez formats (and only make sound)through the HDMI. If your watching a bluray with only standard DTS/DD soundtracks it may be worthwhile to A/B with a Toslink/Coax and see which sounds the best to you.
