Re: DVD with Prologic--how much do you lose?

If the player has an AC-3 decoder, then you need 6 channel inputs on your processor with a bypass mode.

My friend has his DVD player on a prologic reciever and it sounds good. All the DVDs provide a prologic track. I just hooked one up to one system and did notice that you did get a bit more with DD. The rear channels are discreet so airplanes roaring around the room and gunshots are a bit more realistic. The LFE channel also adds a bit more bass for effects. Bottomline is that you'll lose a bit on he special effects but the picture quality improvement is still more than worth the upgrade from video tapes.
