hi!
jumping from forum to forum and still looking for the right unit for my HT, i'm currently checking out specs for the above mentioned lex dc-2.
the main reason for considering the lex as my new HT processor is the built-in logic 7 mode.
i now wonder what it is capable of doing...
ok, it can process 7.1 channels out of DD/DTS 5.1 sources. thats cool and very important for me...
but i still have several questions left:
a)
as for now, i only have a 5.1 setup and no space for the additional 2 rear speakers.
how does logic 7 affect the sound if i apply it to normal 5.1 soundtracks on 5.1 speakers (and is the DC-2 able to do this)?
b)
according to the instruction manual,the lex setup menu offers the possibility to choose between rear and side speaker...my setup uses 2 dipole-speakers on the sides...what is the appropriate selection for my setup? side speakers or rear speakers?
c)
if you are in a good mood and have enough time, you may want to explain all the logic 7 modes possible on the dc-2 (logic 7 on dd2.0 tracks, ...)
...that would make my day
d)
i dont want to give in to the surround-format-mania as i just want great 5.1 and at a later date, 7.1 decoding...
is a new dc-2 a good investment for a HT or would you recommend buying a HK8000 ? what are your thoughts?
well, i am new on this board, but i'm looking forward to discuss the latest home theater stuff here...
thanks in advance for your replies!
greets,
