New AVR and Speaker system unbearable for my dog / movies only Heeeelp!

You know, I could see the dog running away from only the Music if you were a Justin Beiber fan but I cannot understand why your dog would run away from movies... Are you watching a 'Real Housewives' Marathon?

Haha. No "Real Housewives" Marathon here Been married for over 20 years. That's real enough for me! I have tried switching the sound style to Stereo and Multi Channel Stereo thinking perhaps it is something with the Dolby Sound. same affect :/

I really think it is the speakers, although my post was somewhat tongue in cheek.

I dn't think the dog likes boomy speakers which would be worst playing movies.

Do an Internet search and find post related to boomy DefTecks.

I have then pegged as among the most unpleasnt speakers on the market.

I gotcha. My post too was just throwing back a little shade It's pretty obvious you know your stuff and your set up is pretty frickin awesome! I am just bummed. I actually think the speakers sound really good but of course compared to my old super awesome Polk Audio sound bar there was a lot of room for improvement. I did download the Audysey EQ app and was able to cap the High Frequency out put for each speaker down to 11,000 Hz. Still having the issue and again....Music is no problem. Played a bunch of music last night super loud both dogs were sleeping soundly on the couch. Played an array music Hip hop to rat pack to country, everything but Rap or Metal. No issues! as soon as I turn on a movie my dog bolts but the mother in law's dog is fine?
I guess my only option at this point is to take the speakers back and get something different?
Any suggestions? Could it also be the something with the Marantz receiver?
