In Reply to: Re: Help me complete my HT setup... posted by johnvb on April 17, 2004 at 06:23:55:
So I should ask myself...am I going to listen to this system more for multi-channel music or movies? The answer is movies first, 2-channel music second, multi-channel music third.Yes, the Series 2000 in the link you provided is what I will end up with if I go with everything from AA. I would probably add another pair of HTM 200 for the side surrounds (remember, 7.1).
question: Is 7.1 seven discrete channels?
Follow Ups:
The way I understand it, on Dolby EX and DTS ES, the third channel is matrixed out of the two discrete surround channel, similar to how the older Pro-logic center channel was produced out of the analog 2 channel signal. So there still is only 5 channels + LFE, but your processor extreacts 1 or 2 more signals for your center surrounds.Check out Dolby's site for more info:
that the difference bewteen 6.1 and 7.1 is an extra speaker but not an extra CHANNEL.
I can't get the link to work...but go to dolby.com. click on the Dolby Knowledgebase and read the 5.1-6.1-7.1 question.
