What do you think about the rears not getting any DD sound? If I can get 7 channel stereo doesn't that mean that the optical cable is good? I just got the 950 and am still getting it setup, but I think I have got it pretty close. I am using the Panasonic DVD RP62K for the source. I have set the digital output to bitstream. I can hear movies like Star Wars E1 in 7 channel stereo from all speakers, but no sound in the rears in any DD mode. I am getting the feeling that it is the 950. I am also having problems with the remote. I can't get the macros to do anything.
Interesting info on the difference between tube and transistor.
