| Re: 5.1 vs 7.1 surround Newbie question
Hi all,
Actually, I believe DTS ES is encoded with a 6.1 PCM signal. Yes, the receiver does add Dolby PLx II to Dobly digital and DTS signals when there is only a 5.1 stream if ou have speakers for 7.1. However, I hooked up my 7.1 system after having 5.1 for years, and I was amazed at the additional envelopment. 7.1 does make a difference!! It ws cool to A/B the two to see, and it did make a dramtic difference. It really added additional depth and wrap around effect.
