Uncompressed sound 5.1 vs Compressed Dolby Digital makes a huge difference.
It is nearly night and day if you have a receiver that can handle the HD sound formats or in the case of the Fat PS3, Bit-streaming of the sound.
If you have a PS3 and a Blu-Ray movie and a decent receiver and 5.1 try out this little experiment.
Go into the language/setup of the Blu-Ray and turn the audio to standard English 5.1/Dolby 5.1. Then after listening to it for a few minutes, rewind and then chose the Dolby-TrueHDUncompressedDTS Master HD option and listen to the same 5 minutes segment. An action movie will show the difference off most.
I cannot see how anyone cannot tell the difference between UncompressedHD sound versus Compressed Dolby 5.1

You should even be able to tell a large difference between compressed 2 channel vs. uncompressed 2 channel. Before I got a HD audio capable receiver I could tel the difference between the two.

 

This right here.  I didn't believe there would be a very audible difference.  Every time I bring a BD to show to my parents in their 60s, who have an HDMI reciever, they always ask me why the sound is so much fuller and better than DVD or broadcast HD.  They actually notice the audio difference more than the visual difference in Blu-ray.

 

I am considering upgrading my reciever since I got mine about 6 years ago, but it's still working like new.
