one last thing gonk, when you say, "I use Pro Logic IIx-Movie for two-channel TV broadcasts (either Dolby 2.0 or PCM stereo)." does that mean you are watching the news or a talk show in surround sound because the dolby movie mode in enabled? do those shows sound right in surround. how about sports? are they broadcast in stereo or dolby, and do they sound ok to listen to in a surround mode? like watching football in pro logic movie? i know these are might seem like silly questions but im just trying to understand everything. i new at this. thanks again. angelo.

I'm lazy - I let the 990 apply PLIIx for any TV source. If we stumble across something that is essentially pure mono, then PLIIx can only do so much and a lot of it goes to the center. I do have the center width set up around 4 or 5 so some of the center data gets distributed all the way across the front.

You're not going to get any surround effects, but that's going to be true for anything short of something like 5/7 Stereo.
