Some interesting tidbits there:

For all signals processed by the DSP, the LPF in the DSP matches that of the highest frequency HPF in order to comply with Dolby Digital bass management certification.


There was an (somewhat incorrect, imo) article at Secrets a little while ago about why individual crossovers were a bad thing. One of the *conjectures*, was that if you had say, 60 Hz mains, 120 Hz center, 80 Hz surrounds/rears, set, that the global low pass filter to the sub might be that lowest setting or 60Hz. That would leave a "hole" for example in the center channel, 60 - 120 Hz. At least by the above, that is not true for the 950/AT/Sherbourn units.

But I guess I do wonder, if the low pass to the sub is 120 Hz in this case, is that also for the mains, so that there'd be "doubling" from 60 to 120 Hz? I.e., the low pass to the sub should *not* be a global value, but it should the same value for each channel as what the respective high pass filter is.

I actually know of a way to test this, but just haven't gotten around to it yet...

Does the PT-7000 offer DSP mode processing options for digital 5.1 signals such as DD, or DTS?

Yes. DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 for DTS signals. Dolby Digital EX and Cirrus Extra Surround Cinema and Music modes for Dolby Digital 5.1 signals.


I don't know about your 950, but mine also has CES modes for DTS 5.1 too.
