giving a kind of 'wide stage' feel to the dialog that I liked

I have noticed when source is satellite/stereo sometimes DPL11 has a near match simulation to DD 3/2.1.
However certain feeds (or recordings) seem to give surround modes very little to work with and whole vast lengths of a movie can still be weighed heavily (or entirely) into the center speaker. Very unappealing. The next time I run into this sit. I’ll try center crossover higher to see if this spreads the stage to a more enveloping effect. Thanks for the tip.
When all sound tends to bear to center off satellite, particularly reducing impact during an action/adventure flick that’s the only time I use 5-S (now) 6-S to at least emulate, ‘enveloping’. I’ll try the crossover bump next time and see what occurs.
