Re: Upgade from 2 Chn to HT

Agreed, music thru normal DPL sounds awful.

Basically DPL II is a continuation of the surround work pioneered by Jim Fosgate in the processors that bore his name and the discontinued Citation stuff.

In simple terms it takes a 2 channel source and fakes it into a signal with pseudo stereo surrounds and none of the bandwidth limiting of std DPL.

Incorporates a Movie mode and Music mode.

Technical info can be found at the Dolby site and at Fosgate's new site.

As well as the high end processors already out (Meridian, TAG McLaren),Fosgate has several DPL II decoders due soon, including a tube model and mainstream manufacturers like Kenwood are including DPL II ddecoding in this season's receivers.
