The A35 and the recently released Panasonic BD30 are the ONLY two players that recognize and output DTS-HD-Master in bitstream format. Many other players, including the A30 output DDTrueHD and the rest of the formats.

You will need an audio processor with HDMI 1.3 and a decoder that will unpack the bitstream formats if that is the route you want to go. I'm pretty sure the 705 will do this.

To whether the A35 internally decodes all the formats is a question I can't answer because I do not have any HD disks with DTS-HD:M and I do not think there are any either…... The BD30 is targeting owners of HDMI 1.3 audio processors.
