Ok guys,
I haven't bought a new receiver for a long time. My previous receiver to this Yamaha RX-v2600 was a Kenwood Sovererign series VR-3090 and I absolutely love it still but now that I have a new place and a new HT setup, I am starting to familiarize myself with new technology.
What is confusing me about this receiver is that the GUI seems to let me choose whether I was to decode using Dolby Prologic, Dolby Prologic II or DTS:neo. regardless of what media is, I still can choose can kind of decoding. So if I'm watching a DVD movie that either has DTS 5.1 or Dolby Digital 5.1, I typically choose DTS 5.1 track. In my old receiver, if I chose DTS5.1 as the sound track, it would automatically select DTS decoding and it would be it. But now I can choose anyone I want on the RX-V2600, is that right?
Also, does Dolby Digital changed its name to Dolby Prologic II? I'm kind of confused.. I my older receiver, Dolby Prologic and Dolby Digital (AC3) was two different beasts, with Dolby Digital sounding way better. Please enlighten me on this. Thanks.
