Not sure if anyone is on this forum anymore but thought I would give it a try. I've had my C2 for years. Not sure how long now but I'm guessing it's been close to 10 years. Still love it. never been a need to upgrade or downgrade just to get the new decoding. My plan all along was to just add an Oppo BluRay player that has analog outs to get the new audio formats. That way I can use the 7.1 analog inputs on my C2.
Anyway, bored, decided to add surround back speakers to my system. I use a Cinenova Grande 5ch amp for my main 5 speakers and added a small 2ch amp I had laying around to run the surround back speakers. It's an auto sensing amp and should just fire up when a signal is present.
In the C2 menu, I switched the back speakers to "2 small". Set their distance. I will calibrate them when my kids are not here. For now I just wanted to fire them up with a movie and see how they sound. I use a PS3 as my BluRay/DVD player with the TosLink output into the C2.
For whatever reason, I don't get any output to the speakers/amp. It isn't firing up and just stays in standby mode. Am I missing a setting on the Halo? I know I'm not getting a true 7ch signal but shouldn't a 5.1 signal be enough? I thought the C2 will take the signal from the surround speakers and feed it to the back speakers if they are turned on???
Anyone?
