    My question is....what does digital ready have to do with a speaker?

    Nothing, would be my answer.
    tell me there were intended for pro-logic.

    they look like matison speakers the kit speakers you put togeter your self, i dont thank that there would be that much diffance between pro lodgic vs dd for a speater if it is a newer modle, long as they can handle highs & the lows that the digital signal puts out, dose the speaker have a frequency graft what is its top& bottem frequency rating
    . rt-7 mains
    rt-20p surounds
    cs-400i front center
    cs-350 ls rear center
    2 energy take 5, efects
    2- psw-650 , subs
    1- 15" audiosource sub

    lets all go to the next ces.

    They are ls/fx, and maybe he meant the were designed for 'surround' or rear use.....

    Identical tweet on the rear with the port, di/bipole switch on the side with the terminals. I used a pair for about 6 months with an rt800/cs300 setup, they produced a VERY diffuse soundfield...well worth it.

    Cheers,

    There is of course no such thing as a digital or non-digital loudspeaker. Any speaker, hooked up to either system, will successfully deliver either format.

    If they are rear surrounds, and you have a pro-logic system, they will get a matrixed mono stereo-extension signal. If they are rear surrounds and you have a Dolby Digital system, they will get discrete digital channel signals (in 5.1 encoded material).

    the reason i asked is that i thought i had a deal then all of a sudden they said they did not want them cause they were not for dd or dts but were for pro logic. whatever trips there trigger.

    There is an element of truth to a "Pro-Logic specific" speaker. As you know, the surround speakers in DPL are mono. They are also not full range. To help create a more convincing surround effect, dipole speakers were often used. This doesn't seem to be as critical with DD where you have discrete, full-range channels. It also isn't recommended for surround sound music.
