yes
it'll decode those HD tracks and send to avr as LPCM

my housemate just planning to buy hd receiver and use my ps3 as bd source. my bd collection now only have dolby digital and pcm sound. if ps3 can decode dts hd then i'll stick with it

World Trust Fund!

Haven't you guys heard of UPSCALING????!!

Make sure your housemate buys HD receiver which has HDMI which can also input LPCM sound. Some old receivers has HDMI but only passthrough. So your PS3 will not be able to play HD audio on these sets.

my current av receiver just have optical and coaxial input only.

wondering what is the cheapest hd receiver that can support dolby true hd and dts hd.

any idea?

laa...HD porn outdated already,,,people must go for Imax Porn 3D

tak main la upscale

why u gay?

where i can get imax porn 3d LOL!

Pioneer Vsx-519.

It doesn't have HD Audio decoding but it can input Multi Channel LPCM from PS3. Price is around RM1,2xx. Maybe can still negotiate.

Even if you buy a stand alone Blu-ray player, a lot of them got onboard HD audio decoding, so your AV receiver don't need the decoder. It just need to be able to input decoded HD sound (LPCM) from the Blu-ray player through the HDMI input which the Pioneer 519 can do.

Don't buy the Pioneer 818. It has HDMI but only acts as passthrough. It can't input the LPCM HD sound.

Guys,

What is the improvement you get for high-end BD players compare to Panny RM900 one?? Which is the best value for money BD player to own now?

Just dun BOTher about it and it will go away ...

If wanna get high-end BD players..check if they have features that are not available on BD60..

You wouldn't wanna get a high-end player and ended up losing features to a budget player.

Remember that features are objective..whereas PQ/SQ are subjective..

thanks for your opinion. will think about that.

btw, my housemate already got his receiver but not sure which brand and model.

Agreed. Those supposedly high-end players cost so much because of all the gold it has. If you scrape all the gold-plated connectors you could make yourself a nice gold ring.

Just kidding.

bro aiman04,

saw in your signature that you are using "DVE: HD Basics Blu-ray Edition" for tuning and calibration. is it included with sound calibration?

It's more to HD video instead of audio, but it does include these:

Full Bandwidth Pink Noise - Stereo
Frequency Sweep, 15 Hz to 11 kHz
Band Limited Pink Noise - Stereo
440 Hz Calibration Tone
Subwoofer Phase Check
Multi-Channel Levels & Balance
Pan Around the Room
Buzz & Rattle Check
