I own an Onkyo TX-DS494 which has a Dolby Pro Logic II decoder. Last night when playing one of my Stereophile test cd 2 (channel identification tracks) - I discovered something ODD... with the DPLII Music/Movie mode on and using 4.1 set-up, the LEFT channel sound check came out in the phantom center (I don't have a center channel yet) and the RIGHT channel sound check didn't come out at all! (I've checked and all my connections are correct) Has anyone encountered this before? Any info would be great... I'm wondering if there's a bug in my receiver or it is 'normal' with DPLII processing. I already mailed same question to dolby.com hoping for enlightenment. Maybe you can try it yourself if you have a DPLII receiver. Cheers!
