Are you sure that the PCM signals are being sent to your receiver as multichannel high bitrate and not a downconverted 2 channel version? If it were the latter it would cause your receiver to playback in pro logic and will throw out the LFE track. Are you connected HDMI?
Hey Goon,

Yes I am indeed connected via HDMI -- the Blu ray player is running HDMI out to my Onkyo receiver, where the HDMI out from the receiver runs to my Sony SXRD display; how would I tell if the PCM signals are being sent with a high bitrate and not a downconverted 2 channel version? My receiver indeed lights up "MULTICH" with "HDMI/PCM/MULTICHANNEL" lit above it when I play PCM tracks....
