First Blu-Ray To Get DTS Neo:X-Optimized Soundtrack

Maybe I should wait to build my HT when recievers and bd players can handle these new formats?

I think I'm going to need a bigger room. I'm currently upgrading to 7.1, and considering taking advantage of my AVR's 9.1.

I thought the 7.1 was a bit much. Guess not.

9.1 is only better if you have the room for it.

I have 9.1 using DPL-IIz/Audyssey DSX, and I love it. As it seems that DTS derives their directional cues in much the same way that Dolby does, I imagine this track ought to work nicely with DPL-IIz Height. Guess I'll see when it comes out.

If you can count the number of audio cues you notice due to 9.1 or 11.1 or... on one hand (or one finger) in a movie, is it worth the investment?
This is not a statement, it is an honest question. I just want to hear opinions on this.

Can Hollywood studios put 9.1 tracks on older movies like Apocalypse Now and release them on bluray?
