Digital Surround Sound…….mmmmmmmmm

So I have had surround sound for a while now.  I have watched many movies with it, and I have always enjoyed it, but sometimes wondered why it was not as good as the movie theater.  Speaking to my brother, I realized that I had forgotten to hook it up digitally.  I only had an analog signal coming out of it!  To some of you this means nothing, but in surround sound it means everything. 

I watched Superman with it hooked up correctly and I heard things so clearly.  I had never seen Superman to know the difference though.  So right now, as I write this, I am watching Lord of the Rings.  Can I just say, OH MY GOSH!  what a difference, I have even been scared a few times by noises that I had no idea were even in this movie, and I have seen this movie close to 30 times.  Birds are flying around me, whispers are in my ear, crickets are churping behind me, and I am surrounded with some of the best and most epic movie music I think that I have ever heard. 

So to sum up, if you have a digital output on your DVD player and one on your Surround Sound plug it in!  It is also known as COAX.  If you do not have Surround Sound, stop what you are doing and go buy one…………now!
