A question on 6 channel SACD connections via Anthem's VM-20's inputs.
I own a Sony 555 ES and it's connected via the 6 channel inputs on the Anthem. That 6 channel connection is accessed using Anlg/DSP selection, but there is something that is confusing me.
Whenever I play a multi-channel disc, it will only play in 6 channel mode. I try to apply some of the sound fields to the playback from the Anthem in 6 channel, but I am NOT able to access them using the Anlg-DSP audio in.
The readout on the Anthem always displays 6 channel mode. NO DSP field can be applied such as Prologic 2, etc. However, I can access bass and treble functions in the 6-Channel mode.
I've tried Redbook CD's Hybrids, and straight single layer SACD's and it still does not allow any DSP processing sound field change from the Anthem even with the Anlg/DSP processing selected in 6-channel mode.
I've setup the 555ES in various ways using different configurations in the set up menu. Still no DSP processing changing sound fields can be accessed via the 6 channel inputs. I am confused as it might something simple. Perhaps I am overlooking something?
Using the connections of the 555ES via the stereo jacks to the Anthem's CD inputs, all functions of DSP processing can be accessed via the Audio In format of Anlg-DSP. All sound field selections are available.
The question is in essence, can DSP processing with different sound fields be applied in 6 channel mode on the Anthem?
Thanks,
Charles
