[QUOTE="Snoopy87, post: 1209099, member: 128461"] Correct! But that has to be configured in the AV Receiver! That's why I want PCM 2.0 to my AVR and not PCM 2.0 integrated in a PCM 5.1 signal. And of course I don't want to upmix 2.0 to 5.1 on my HTPC, because those software solutions are not as great as the Yamaha DSP (which also uses the YPAO room calibration) Thanks for the tip with MPAR and LAV Filter!
