I'd like to add Dolby Atmos to my home theater because I would appreciate a more accurate soundstage. Going from stereo to multichannel made a huge difference in drawing the audience into the movie and making it a thoroughly engaging experience. Dolby Atmos (along with a couple more speakers)...

Winfred, I'm using a pair of Citation 7.1s with my MC-8. Sounds awfully good to me, but someone was recently trying to sell me on the idea of the new Sherbourn seven channel amp as a replacement. I haven't done a Sherbourn demo yet. Anyone have any experience? -Gary

Erik_C, The hiss you are experiencing sounds a lot like that described by Prefect back in May here that essentially kicked off the whole hiss hunt. Could they have possibly given you a non-modified unit by accident? Things like this DO happen. Mary, Thank you for your observations (as...

OK, I'll chime in. I've been playing with the 950 for almost two weeks now. No 7.1 for me yet, but I've tried out almost all flavors of processing and non-processing on mono through 5.1 DD & DTS. I am VERY favorably impressed. Even for straight two channel listening (relative to my Conrad...

Gord, I was just about to pose the same question when I saw your thread. I watched the original release again last week. Baraka certainly deserved better than it got in the original release! So, how good is good for the new release? Roger, are there any other current releases with comparable...

I haven't seen them all yet, but the ones I have seen are much better than Madacy. Given the age of some of these films, I thought they were quite good. No, they don't come close to what a major studio could do. As Ken points out, though, for the money they are a good way to investigate the...
