Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Warning! This thing is not Dolby TrueHD multi-channel capable. They are using the fine print specifications of Dolby TrueHD to deliver a product that is, in my opinion, of inferior quality when it comes to home theater. The samsung bd-up5000 only plays 2 channels in Dolby TrueHD. The user manual states in the fine print "When playing a dolby TrueHD disc, audio will only be heard over the front left and right speakers". I also called Samsung support about this. After being kept on hold and disconnected several times... they confirmed that this unit will only play 2 channel TrueHD. The level 2 technician at samsung kept telling me that Dolby TrueHD only requires a minimum of 2 channels for the specs and kept telling me to read about it on the Dolby website. The samsung technician also told me that they have no plans on issuing a "fix" to make the samsung bd-up5000 thing multi channel for TrueHD. I just upgraded my amplifier so I could accept a multi-channel Dolby TrueHD signal and I ordered the samsung bd-up5000 because it is advertised as having dolby TrueHD. The samsung hd duo bd-up5000 isn't multi-channel Dolby TrueHD compatible... at least not if you ask anyone who expects to hear their home theater in "surround sound". Not much surround sound to hear from a unit that only outputs 2 channels of Dolby TrueHD. I am truly disappointed with Samsung.
