| Re: Best listening modes for someone with a 5.1 setup? I think you are confusing two things here. Dolby Digital, TrueHD, DTS, etc... are all formats that audio are encoded on a disc.
Dolby ProLogic IIx is a DSP, Yamaha has quite a few of these. If you have a 5.1 set up and are watching a movie encoded in 5.1 I would just leave everything be unless you find a DSP that you like more. Now if you are watching a movie that is encoded in stereo you might want to turn on PLIIx as that will matrix vocals and such, as needed, to your center channel. Also, if you upgrade to a 7 channel system and turn PLIIx on it will matrix information out to your rear surrounds which is also nice.
Play with them and see what you like! |
