Jason<br />Shit!! I don't even remember selling it to you it must have been a long time ago. As you probably remember I am nearly always first to try new technology. My first Laser Disc Player was bought in the US (Magnavox)so were my disc, they were Not available in Australia at the time. As you know I had the full Dolby Surround system in those days and I was disappointed when I bought my first DVD player ,Could not get the correct seperation/direction with my combination, But all has changed now. My setup is very good, seperation and direction is 100% <br />I tried like you said using the Dolby Processor for the rear speakers for the EX disc for Centre rear, but it was not happy.<br />Phil <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" />
