In Reply to: DD 5.1 through 2 channel amp.... how to? posted by petethebeat on December 27, 2004 at 12:26:11:
OK, so what's the point of having a DVD player with a DD processor in it if you still need a 5 channel amp or receiver?
The only difference is the processor is in my DVD player... no?
Follow Ups:
The reason for the decoder in the DVD player is simply for giving the user options. You can decode via the player and not need a pre-pro, sending the 6 analog signals to their respective amps right from the DVD player (the low cost option). The other option is to send the digital signal to a pre-pro and decoding there and managing all of the various settings, usually offering higher quality DAC's and decoders, and more management options. In either case you still need amplification for all 6 channels.
Your player's processor is capable of separating the signal into 5.1 channels but you need to amplify all those channels. A 2channel amp can only amplify 2 channels.Both the player and the amp have to be capable of the requisite channels and, of course, the number of speakers.
