Dolby digital +DPL2?

On my denon, I have different selections for my rear surrounds. I have two speakers driven by seperates amps. I can select: off, ex, , pro logic 2, 1 speaker. I have two connected, what is the difference between ex and pro logic 2? I mean, in the rear channel, since there's only one signal designated to it (I'm talking 6.1 dts or dd ex),what is the difference? I do not notice a difference in the two rear surrounds in ex or pro logic 2. It freaked me out when i got it, cause i didn't read my manuel, and that was the default, and didn't realize the +dpl2 was for the rears. It was wierd, but now that I understand it, what's the difference in the two? just curious

check out http://dolby.com/consumer/technology/tech_overview.html for your answers. they explain the differences between them two and even the newer dolby pro logic IIx in case you would like to know about that.

So it basically just splits the rears into 4 channels of audio instead of 2 or 3. I really don't notice a difference between ex and dpl2x though. Anyway, thanx for the link.
