I think perhaps I should ask some questions in relation to the topics here. The other topics are preoccupied by the would-be consumers.

1. Can anyone compare the old Astro sound quality, as in its native 5.1 form through feeding from the normal RCA cable, with the new Byond, either via HDMI, Digital CoAxial cable or the RCA cables.

2. How is the new decoder fair on the existing Astro Radio channels? I mean how is the dynamics etc..?

3. In HBO HD channel, do they broadcast the movie in DTS form as well ?

Appreciate the answers. Thanks.
