Some AVRs and pre-pros with the capability to internally decode DTS-MA bitsream had a decoder chip that produced a very loud pop (like a bomb) on a certain code string. Some Onkyo/Integra as well as Yamaha units (? Denon and others as well) were known to be affected. Most have upgraded their firmware to address this bug. Since it can be damaging to your equipment, it is best to either avoid those movies that are known to have the potential bomb or, better yet, upgrade the firmware in order to be immune to it altogether.
