hi I have a Yamaha 3030. my question is when watching blurays I can only get my presence speakers
to come on in dsp mode. if the Bluray has hd sound why wouldn't the presence be on in strait mode?
thanks!

The purpose of the presence speakers is to add ambience when using Yamaha’s DSP modes. In other words, they’re a big part of what makes the “Church in Freiburg” setting sound like a large, “echoey” cathedral and “Cellar Club” sound like a small, intimate jazz club. So yes, the presence speakers will only work when a DSP mode is selected. Any "Straight Mode" setting will bypass all DSP processing and hence the presence speakers.

Presence speakers are not a discrete channel and do not exist in the normal audio formats. Atmos and dts-X do utilize speakers in this fashion.
