We had to adjust volumes, as the DVD's generally seemed louder than CD source.
I understand the lossy encoding nature of DTS/DD. I wonder, since DTS has a higher bitrate than CD audio, and both have higher sampling rates and use 24 bit wordlengths, does this over come the "lossy compression" set back?.
Is it possible that compressing a 24 bit, 48 kHz audio track could sound better than CD's 44.1 kHz, 16 bit signal without compression?
What I'm really looking for is a decent article or link comparing the three formats, I haven't been able to find one that compare sound quality with fundamentals to support the analysis.
