    Hi,

    Does anyone know if UPC broadcast Dolby Digital or other such file formats. I have the SPDIF out to my amp and it doesn't sound all to good. I know I could use the amp to produce 5.1 but it's no substitute.

    Thanks,
    majj

    UPC uses a lot of compression and sound quality has never been good enough for stereo let alone 5.1. I don't think they have the bandwidth for it.

    Ah yes - compression would ruin it alright. Thanks
