your reference dvd

Another that's fun to watch:Allegro Non Troppo.The Italian version of Walt Disneys' Fantasia.Animation to classical music.

I don't have a Blu-Ray DVD Player yet. I am either going to shoot for a PS-3 (w/80 GB Hard Disk) or the $800.00 Denon. The new and forthcoming player from Oppo is also a prime candidate.

But in the meantime, for my reference movies??? For picture quality, I am going to put Casino Royale into my DVD Player, and for sound quality, then it's going to either be Die Hard I or The Specialist.

I will be getting a Blu-Ray Player this year (DEFINITELY).

Charles, you MUST go the Bluray route. If you can do 1080P, thats great but you must do the new audio codecs. WOW!
