    You shouldnt need to setup those things in the DVD player unless you are using its internal dolby digital decoder. If you are providing a digital bitsream out to your reciever, it will do the decoding and that is where you need to set the speaker size, LFE settings, surround delay, etc.

        Yes, those settings will apply to the 5.1 analog outputs (for DVD-A/SACD) provided your player has bass management, etc. for DVD-A/SACD. I used to have a Panasonic DVD player that did DVD-A and it had all the settings in it for speaker size, delay, LFE redirection, etc. but it was actually for if you were using the player to decode DD and DTS. It didnt actually perform bass managment on the DVD-A signal. It just sent the 5.1 channels out the analog outs so I was getting full range audio to all 5 of my speakers. There was no bass management on DVD-A. This was over a year ago and I dont know what the status on bass management for SACD/DVD-A is. Perhaps tell us what model of player you have.

          Thanks to my existing MX-700 remote it was almost painless to program the new C2 MX-700 remote.

          by regular guy
          Help!

          I bought a sixth speaker to put in my home theater. I plan to use it as an additional surround speaker (center back).

          Well, I managed to hook up the speaker with the Rotel RSX-1056 (which can run 5 speakers) and am using an older Yamaha receiver to power the 6th speaker....

          SSP-800 Setup assistance
          by sikoniko
          It seems there are some people having issues with getting the SSP-800 setup. It seems to me that we should create a category so people can find information easily instead of letting it get burried with other conversations.
