Your problem is likely to be the extraction of the Center information from a pro-logic decoder..... you are taking the stereo output from your DVD player and having your receiver decode it as pro-logic, right????

can't see how this would be good!

There is no discrete channel information, only synthesized.

Now, what DD/DTS decoder to get. My older Sony 444ES gave good discreet channel separation but the center channel had similar issues as you are describing (even though it was properly decoding the discrete chennels), i just switched over to a Denon 3805 receiver and the center info (as well as all other channels) is much better.... voices come through very well.
