A lot of them do have this, it's usually call stereo-4 or something along that line. My Sunfire prepro has party-4 and party-5 mode.Dave 
For HT, how important is extension south of 20 Hz?
02-19-07: Drubin"And then there is legendary Brown Note, the frequency reportedly somewhere between 5Hz and 20Hz that invokes involuntary gastrointestinal motility. Wouldn't want to miss out on that. Great for parties and family gatherings"HeHe...... 
For HT, how important is extension south of 20 Hz?
Good question and I don't know the answer. I've never measured the low freq output in any movie I've watched so I'm not sure how low they go?I'd guess that the lower the sub will go...the less problems it may have out putting the freq's above at h... 
Tyler Audio Taylo question
A biamp switch maybe?....this is what my VMPS Supertowers have....just guessing about yours.Dave 
Getting rid of harsh, shrill treble
This is one of my best digital recordings of violin when played back on my system.... judged on tone.http://www.amazon.com/Britten-Walton-Violin-Concertos-Vengerov/dp/B00008XRSWDave

Unless you have a harsh component (s)...it's probably room acoustics as others have mentioned. That said, I find good violin recordings (at least on cd) far and few between.Dave

earthquake subs
Another way to look at it: If you transform yourself into a speaker designer for this thread...fullrange speaker systems that use 15" drivers would always use another driver between the 15" and the 5"-6" driver they may also use in that system...i... 
Question about 5.1 Surround Format
Two channel stereo receivers don't have digital inputs. You will use the dvd players L=R analog outputs...stereo.With your surround receiver set to no center or rear, those channels are folded into front L=R I beleave. All DVD's have a stereo trac...

When to use low pass filter?

SS vs Tube Preamps
I agree with Paulfolbrect, My tubed preamp (Audioprism Mantissa) and tube amps (Rogue M-120 Magnums) have great bass in my system...the Rogue amps replaced a Krell Kav-500 a little over a year ago, bass is at least on par with the "little" Krell.T...
