Pardon My Ignorance... - 01/29/05 09:34 AM
I am brand new to "multi-channel" sound previously only having a 2 channel (stereo) rig.
I just set up my 950/7100/LFM-1 combo with Klipsch Heresy Mains and a center and surrounds (for the last week I have only listened in stereo mode)
Watched "Blackhawk Down" last night and enjoyed it but not "blown away" by it...but I have not yet set everything up as it should be yet.
My questions are:
Do you all listen to music in "multichannel?"
I listened today and then switched to "stereo bypass" and I like the sound better...perhaps because I am used to it?
When you put in a movie, do you find the sound is considerably lower than if you were just playing stereo music? Why is this?
Do you turn your sub up (louder) during movies than you do during music? I am still learning this as well...
Sorry for the "newbie" questions but you have to start sometime.
Thanks.
Bill
