Getting 5.1 from Pro Logic Pre-Amp If it has a set of 5.1 analog inputs you can keep it. Some old receivers were sold as digital ready and had these inputs, my old Onkyo did. You would only need a Dvd player with built-in decoding.Dave | |

Splitting Preamp Output--Affect Sound Quality? If you use a good quality splitter there should be no difference between sound from a pre-amp that has an extra set of pre-outs wired in for convenience.Dave | |

subwoofer+speaker+same binding=low level hiss What sub is this? Why do you have it hooked to your amp if it is powered. Try a line level hook-up to the sub from your pre-amp and see if that helps.Dave | |
