I'm not good with stereo equipment... I have NEVER... and I now realize I never will.. figure out how to dial in sound with movies... especially being able to hear the voices. I simply CAN NOT DO IT... nothing works. Loud effects blow my windows out and voices barely register. I think it's how they are digitized... which leads me too....

Played a song for my granddaughter last night....and damn if I've forgotten which one it was... BUT... it was amazing. Perfect balance between front, center, side, and rear speakers. The room was FILLED with music... it was fantastic.... BUT....

Only that one song... the other's were "ok" but no where NEAR perfect. So I don't think there is any doubt... unless recorded/digitized to my liking I simply can NOT get it to play the way I want to hear it. - JamesJM
