Thanks for the encouragement. Movies do sound great with my 2 channel system but I am not as critical. I will try a few of your recommendations.
Why do music DVD's sound so bad?
I have purchased a few music DVD's (videos and live performances not 5 channel). and thought I could watch and listen to music with my 2 channel set-up (really haven't got into the 5 channel thing). I lost interest early after being disappointed with the sound quality. I tried a few DVD players Sony DVP9000ES and had the same poor results? It might be the titles I have selected.
