I'm also interested. What titles do you need pa? I can lend you my Blade 2 DVD for the DTS, and also Daylight for your Dolby Digital (I read somewhere that for Daylight, the DD is way better than the DTS version)

let me know. thanks

Would you like to include animation?  I have the animated Titan AE in DTS.  The first 15 minites is a real LFE and surround showcase.  Even the first 10 minutes of Atlantis, The Lost Empire CE in DTS can be one

Cool! Titan AE is a great DVD! Also the part where they are chasing each other in the asteroid belt, lots of surround & LFE.

Bluray, make sure to take a pic of sir AV_phile when you meet him. I am curious to see what he looks like. The best I saw of him was his toes when he took a pic of a subwoofer (was that you sir?) from some old thread.  ;D

Hehe peace  ;D

Napaubo ako sa tawa.   ;D  Yup, those were my toes.  Funny that you remember.  ;D  

The last 20 minutes or so of Titan AE, playing hide and seek amidst those ice cyrstals, is also quite active in the surrounds.

Teka, the post above was a suggestion of the good DTS titles. I dont have half of those DVDs  ;D

I could contribute DTS Demo disk 4 & 8- notable DTS tracks fr. TTT, Pirates of the Carribean, X2, Gangs of New York, Daredevil, SPR, AntZ, Haunting, Eagles

Also, Stealth, Resident Evil  Apoc. DTS-ES, Blade Trinity,  Sin City, as soon as I get to know which chapters are cool for demo.

 I also have the other DTS titles that I mentioned above but its better to let the other participants of this project to contribute their DVDs and I will just fill up the ones that were not contributed. This way I wont be bringing so many DVDs.
Most of my R1 DTS DVDs (Jurassic Trilogy, U571, Dragonheart, etc.) are still sealed kasi. On order pa lang Master & Commander sa U.S., next year na yun dadating. Hopefully we could get these titles from our kind contributors.

Napaubo ako sa tawa.   ;D  Yup, those were my toes.  Funny that you remember.  ;D  

How could I forget, I also coughed from laughing when someone else in the thread pointed out your toes in the picture.  ;D

Sige, bro blu-ray. Pls bow down to him in my behalf.  ;D

While you are bowing, take a good look at his toes and match it with his pic here w/ the subwoofer, he might be an imposter ;D

Only the true audio god deserves homage...

my p.m pal bro matz sa wakas makikita ko na gaano ka kalupit

Gaano kalupit ano? ....KUMAIN?

Interesting thread.

Sir Blu Ray, I also want a copy of your DTS and DD demo discs, kaya lang puno na yung 12 people. Pwede pa bang humabol? For DTS, I can offer Moulin Rouge, Minority Report, SPR, I-Robot. For DD, there's Star Wars (I'll include Episode III kung dumating next week), Harry Potter series, Batman Begins, Disney DVDs such as Lion King, Incredibles, etc.

Please choose na lang from the above titles which one you still need. If the limit is really just up to 12 people, I'm willing to buy the demo discs. (Don't worry about the "illegal" thing... Atin-atin lang naman.)

Thanks.
