can some one verify it?? I got from AVS..current my setup it is not like this :

If you are using a 5.1 speaker setup with a 7.1 channel receiver then you need to tell the receiver that you have no "rear" speakers. The surrounds you have should be identified as "side" speakers even if they are physically set up to the rear of your seating position. They should be wired to the side surround speaker outputs of your receiver.

Meanwhile, tell the PS3 to send no more than 5.1 channels to the receiver (uncheck the 7.1 audio choices in the audio output settings). If you play a 7.1 track, the PS3 will then take care of mixing any "rear" surround content into the "side" surround content it is sending to the receiver during its decoding of the 7.1 track for you.

This guy need to go back and read his receiver's manual, and pay attention. This is simply not true, at least for my receiver. For 7.1 receivers, there are already a dedicated "side"/surrounds and "rear"/surround-back. Why would anyone connect to the "rear' if they don't have any? And why would you identify it as any other than that? Where you position it after that is irrelevant.

My receiver (I think all other receivers too) will downmix the "rear" channels from all 7.1 sources to the "side" speakers. It's written very clearly in my receiver's manual. nod.gif

And I'm not sure about this, but I think if you uncheck the 7.1 settings in PS3, it will just remove that 2 extra channels. I can't find anything official saying that PS3 is capable of downmixing 7.1 channels.

Can't deny there's some kopitiam style talk there. But they are all but without useful info. I actually like that way, informative but fun. Without it the discussion is just dull. tongue.gif

But oh well, rules are rules, must follow one. biggrin.gif

Auzen X-Fi HomeTheater 7.1 HDMI sound card does bitstream output from your HTPC

Earlier this month, ASUS introduced the "world's first HDMI 1.3a compliant audio / video enhancement combo card." Who knew numero dos was so close behind? Auzentech has just announced its very own HDMI 1.3-native PCIe audio combo card, which is built around Creative's X-Fi processor and enables PC users to easily output 7.1-channel audio with no downsampling. Essentially, the Auzen X-Fi HomeTheater 7.1 "accepts video from either an internal or external connection, mixes it with digital audio, and outputs the combined video and lossless multichannel audio via a single HDMI 1.3 port." Yep, that means Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio codecs are fully supported. The only digs? For one, pricing remains a mystery, but the real kicker is the September release -- talk about a long wait.

well, we could start build our own full hd HTPC now... pop in BD reader (147-300 USD) + this sound card + awesome powerful GC and walla!

Thanks for the kind words bro. notworthy.gif

I might be selling some BDs again in few weeks, some are new factory sealed, need some $$$ for my now postponed subwoofer project. sweat.gif

I'm getting my bonus letter today, we'll see if I can get a floorstanders. If not, another bookshelf but higher end. I'm not that enthused to get big setup, even my subbie I target 10" only. tongue.gif

Remember to inform me if you got any BDs to sell. dun leave me behind.

I'm targeting CHT-10R la bro. tongue.gif

Yup, I might settle for Velo. SVS could give deeper experience for movies, but worried about how it performs with music. HSU, from the specs, more or less equivalent to Velo, but Velo can get here.

Good, good ........... accompany me, seems like I'm the only one buying CHT-10R, the rest of Elites here are targetted subwoofers with 12 inch and above bass driver.

You mean just BD-Roms? Read only? I'm interested in LG's combo drive, HD-DVD and Blu-Ray. Waiting for my friend to get it from Amazon first. It's kinda cheap now. RM500 plus.
