If your new pre-pro has 5-7 channel stereo I'll buy one. If not, I'll continue to be stuck using a Denon receiver (no flexible bass management) as a pre-pro for my Model 750 amp. I don't use other DSP's at all, but I can't live without 5 channel stereo!

Although 5-ch stereo is more of an anti-DSP than a DSP, I guess that's a qualified "yes".

Thanks for asking.:-)

i would say yea. though i would probably never use them. i like to have options. and if they were there i would probably try them once then never use them. but the fact that there would be no additional cost, would make me say yes. i can always not use them. that's my option.

I'm a purist! Thumbs down! Give me just the real deal...anxiously awaiting the new pre/pro! I can't wait to become an "Outlaw!"

Nay on Church, Hall, etc.

I like 5 or more channel stereo feature but wouldn't consider it a DSP mode. I do use the THX settings and occasionaly the "night" mode to increase dialog volume on my integra but none of the church,hall etc modes.

Good luck,

I vote "no" as well.

Thought the 5 channel stereo mentioned in a lot of other posts would be well used I imagine.

Ill have a "NO" well done plz!!

I must agree with most of the folks here in saying NO to the other modes. When I listen to music or movies, I want to hear them as they were recorded, not through some artifical filters. If I want music to sound like I"m in a concert hall, I'll go to a concert.

Yes to DPL II.
The only mode I ever used much in the past was Dolby 3, which I guess is just generating a center channel from stereo. However, I now wouldn't use such a mode unless I had identical speakers across the front. I've also used some Fosgate modes like Rock but those actually involved putting some front channel info into one of the surrounds, not just reverb. Since Fosgate designed DPL II, I figure whatever modes came with that are all I'm going to fool around with.

Don't really use 'em, don't really want 'em.

DPL II - absolutely

Other DSP modes - nope
