I've never really done a side-by-side comparison, but I have a Dolby setup at home and frankly, it sounds pretty damn nice.
I'm not sure if the Lexus/Toyota analogy works, especially considering DTS DVD's sometimes ship with fewer special features than their Dolby counterparts (such is the case on the JP + TLW DVD's). So really, the Dolby JP+TLW DVD's are the "Lexus" since they have more features.

While Dolby is like your Toyota. Both are great and both can last 15 years, but people think the Lexus is better because it's more expensive when that is not the case. But anyways...hope I didn't confuse anyone. But, DTS is a good format...but Dolby is the standard and will always be the standard...but DTS is a nice addition to any DVD. Many people do find that DTS is a bit more clearer than Dolby. And don't forget Louder isn't necessarily better...what you want is clarity in a soundtrack. But, that's just my 2 cents on the subject.

The thing that makes it better is that it is recorded at a higher bit rate and is indeed more clear and defined than Dolby 5.1. But don't get me wrong Dolby is fine, but DTS is a bit better. Now I have the defective JP DTS DVD and now I'm upset to hear they actually fixed the problem meaning I am going to have to go and buy the corrected version. Dang it. lol! Oh well, what can you do.
