In Reply to: Okay, I have a THX-certified DTS disk and full-range (non-dipole) center and surrounds... posted by oscar on November 13, 2005 at 20:31:04:
The frequencies going to the center/rear channels is up to you. You need to tell your processor that you have full range for that/those particular channel/channels (the choice is usually large or small in the speaker size mode). This is true for all DTS, Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro-Logic II processing. Dolby Surround, Dolby Pro-Logic and many (but not all) of the generic effects processing formats intentionally limit the bandwidth to the center and/or rear channels.On some processors, when you choose small speakers, you can pick the high pass frequency (the low frequency cut-off), but many processors default or even lock you into 80Hz. You need to check the manual for your processor. Obviously, when you select large speaker/speakers, you are basically saying that full bandwidth signals are OK (ie; Bring it on!).
