Re: Your Experience w/ Pro-Logic vs DD Front Channels?

Others may argue with me, but without the rear speakers you are completely losing the ambience of the scenes. What the rears do is immerse you in the soundstage; rather than feeling like you are standing in front of it. Yes, the center will always have the most information because any event happening directly on screen comes from the center. Sounds should pan across the front speakers smoothly; especially with a matched set such as yours. If it doesn't, check the output levels for the left,right and center. Many times I find systems with mismatched levels and this can cause just what you describe.

Without adding rear speakers, you will get no real improvement in the sound between Pro-Logic and DD. I upgraded to DD a few years ago after having had a Pro-Logic system for a few years and can honestly say that DD is a big step forward over Pro-Logic. The panning of the sounds is much smoother and realistic.
