Heres a few questions I can`t get my head around.....
1, The Amp dosn`t have Optical in (go figger!!) I always thought that a standard phono connection (red and white) would only deliver left and right channels. How come when i listen to Eastenders on Sky+ I get `atmosphere` sound out of the rear speakers (dolby Pro Logic????)
2, Why does the amp have yellow video inputs? I thought amp`s were for audio only
3, I have 100`s of Region1 disk for sale cos I can`t find a region hack :( (not a question what ya gonna do!! lol )
I told you there were simple stupid questions but i can`t sleep because of them!! :p

Dolby Surround and later Dolby ProLogic is a signal encoded into the stereo track, therefore your amp decodes it and you get surround on compatible programming :D
Quote: 2, Why does the amp have yellow video inputs? I thought amp`s were for audio only Pass through for video signals. Two reasons: 1) use your amp in place of a scart switchbox (but mostly composite so crap quality, occasionaly S Video), 2) lip synch issues caused by the pic hitting the screen at the same time as the sound hits the amp, but then the amp has to output the sound resulting in a miniscule delay that some people can notice Quote: 3, I have 100`s of Region1 disk for sale cos I can`t find a region hack (not a question what ya gonna do!! lol ) 1) chip it, 2) buy a 2nd player for using your R1 stuff, 3) post them into the trading forums, 4) send them to me just cause I`m a nice guy :D
Jimbo : oÞ PS: J/K on the last one....unless ya wanna send them! Lolol
