Blu ray upgrade?


Consider me confused. All the new formats make my head spin. Haven't been keeping up so have questions.

Current receiver (Denon 2802) does not decode new formats but does have 5.1 analog inputs. If I buy a BR player (Oppo 93) with 7.1 analog output will I hear a significant difference with Blu Ray movies/concerts in sound quality from my current 5.1DD? What differences should I expect.
Thanks

I find Blueray offers much superior picture quality to DVD.

If you are thinking of getting a BR player, it would make sense to go the route you are thinking - I'm not sure the sound will be substantially better, but it certainly won't be worse. I've notice it tends to be more dynamic on movies, but I can't say it's night and day, by and means.

Again, the real benefit is picture quality.
