5. Finer increments for speaker delay settings.(less than 1ft/.3m)
Anyone have something more to add?
+1 on these options, with separate DD and DTS adjustment for #3. Also,
6. DD, DTS, PCM, and DPLIIx should be separate surround modes in the menu. Selecting DD decoding would help with sources such as cable boxes and DVRs, considering the 990 takes about half a second to lock in the signal and some premium channel movies don't have a silent pause at the beginning (about 1 sec) like DVDs. Also, some digital outputs (i.e. DVD) are better than others, so the 990 may take even longer than usual to lock in the DD bitstream. As it is, I miss the first 0.5 secs of my CDs' first track unless I stop and replay or go analog.
7. A separate auto mode (not a surround mode per se, but a setting in the menus) that will lock in a signal and select a processing mode for you, just like the 990 does now. All you do is select auto and the processing mode you want.
8. A bypass mode setting for the 7.1 inputs.
9. EQ per channel?
