Title Best
Wimbledon (2004)R1

     The Region 4 version misses out on:

  • DTS 5.1 ES (754Kbs)

     The Region 1 version misses out on:

  • Czech, Hungarian and Polish Dolby Digital 5.1 alternate language tracks.

     My experience has been that a 754Kbs DTS 5.1 track exhibits little improvement in sound quality over a 448Kbs Dolby Digital 5.1 track, but if your equipment is good enough you will notice it. Having said that, Widescreen Review states that the DTS track on the Region 1 disc is "slightly more enveloping, with more defined effects, and a tighter, more delineated frequency range" compared to the Dolby Digital track. My general rule of thumb is: everything else being about equal DTS will always tilt the scales. Region 1 is the version of choice in my view, especially if you can get it for the same price or cheaper.
