It reminds me of the early days of the DVD format. I had a DVD player for almost two years before getting a Dolby Digital receiver (my old Outlaw Model 1050), and during that time I used stereo analog outputs into a Yamaha Pro Logic receiver. I was quite happy with the sound quality compared to the other formats that I had available, even though I kept reading DVD reviews that talked about how much better Dolby Digital was. As with then, the time will come when I can really use these new audio formats, but at least this time I've got Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS, DVD-A, and SACD to occupy me while I wait.
