I love PURE DIRECT, but the problem is, it turns OFF all the LCD displays after a few seconds!!!
What's the fun in that?
I like being able to see "DTS-HD MASTR", "DTS-HD HI RES", "DOLBY TrueHD", and "MULTI CH DIRECT" on my LCD display.
If the display could be kept on all the time in Pure Direct, I would use Pure Direct 100% of the time.
I would also love it if they could make a LCD display of "DTS-HD MA PURE DIRECT" and DOLBY TrueHD PURE DIRECT".
DISCLAIMER: I don't think it sounds differently at all since I don't even use any kind of EQs or DSPs anyway.
