Leave them out except for perhaps a simulated stereo mode for old mono movies.

I say no to DSPs. I never use them, and they just complicate the user interface. Dean

I actually used the "game" mode on my old sony when I had friends over to watch a game. It basically cranked up the rears and had the announcers come out everywhere. Made it so I could turn the volume down enough that we could all talk, but could all still hear the game as well. I haven't had a game get together at my house since getting my 1050, so I haven't used the sound fields at all. So, I vote nay. If you're reading, I have some ideas to make the unit more usable to SO's. My wife has tons of problems w/ the 1050. Feel free to e-mail me.

Yes but only include 1. The Natural mode when functioning correctly does a better job than ProLogic (old, not II) in re-creating good center and ambience from bogus TV material. I use Natural, Stereo and Surround all the time, pending the material. The rest I never have tried.
S.
I thought about it some more and after trying out the included DSP's last night, I would lean more toward none than all. Maybe discrete IR code access would be a plus, but that could be a huge headache.
If only 1 or 2 are there or there is discrete access to the few individuals with programmable remotes who like certain ones, I say sure. Otherwise, nay for me.
S^2.

I think for marketing reasons you need a couple but I could always do without them since I never use them. You might want to include a 5 or 7 channel stereo mode though...

DPL II of course, the only extra maybe Stadium, it can make a ballgame more interesting sometimes.

I'd like you to include DPL II, DTS, DD, and 5/7 stereo mode but that is it. Rarely, if ever, do I use DSP modes. Quite frankly, they are something I could easily live without and never miss them. Real HTers don't use DSP modes. DPL II isn't considered a DSP mode. This vote is definately a "no" for DSP modes.
