11 years ago I bought an Onkyo 6.1 system and loved it.
Great sex clouded my mind and I gave it to my girlfriend 6 years ago.
Last year I bought a Sony 5.1 blu-ray player/5.1 surround system that has DTS Master Audio. Sounds pretty good but not as good as the Onkyo.
The (now-ex) girlfriend is giving me the Onkyo system back.
Because of it's age the Onkyo doesn't have DTS Master Audio but does have DTS-ES (discrete and matrix) and Dolby Digital EX decoders.
I live in an apartment and don't listen at high volume levels.
I'm wondering if the Master Audio sounds noticeably better than DTS-ES. Would it be worth $300+ to replace a decent receiver that otherwise has all that I want?
Thanks!
