I have a Yamaha RX-V1700 and I am trying to ensure that I have the right set up for the surround sound. Mostly, I am concerned to which decoder mode to use. I am currently using neural sound as my main mode because I was trying to use the cinema-dsp mode (movie:adventure and sci-fi) and I was hearing some distortion and from the FL and FR speakers when using those modes. The distortion was only present if the signal was not in dolby digital. I am using a digital directv box with this receiver. So, my question is which mode should I be using? I do have the decoder set to auto and the receiver does switch to 5.1 if the movie is dolby. Should I be using DTS, PrologicII movie, Neo6: cinema? I do love this receiver but I need some help with the set up.
Need some help.....
Also, the HDMI version 1.2 on this receiver. Should I have gotten a receiver with version 1.3? I will be buying an HDTV and I did not realize that a new HDMI version was already out. The receiver was on sale ($500) and it had some great features that others in this price range did not have.
