The Sopranos in 5.1

ted538

I was wondering if someone can help me out.I noticed that The Sopranos is available in 5.1 format where available.I own the Denon 1802.How do I set it up to get the 5.1 DD?..I appreciate your help..I use the 5 channel stereo set up on my receiver and the sound is soooo low..I really want to hear it in 5.1.

But on Yamahamers, when there is a 5.1 signal and the "effect" setting is on,
it automatically does the DD thang.

Denonophiles help him out.

You have to have digital cable, Direct TV or Dish network. 5.1 is only available with a digital signal.

I have digital cable..what do I need to do?

Does your cable box offer a digital out?
If so use the digital out connection to your receiver, you may want to check the audio set-up on the cable box and see if you have to tell it to use the digital out. This should do it.

You nailed it hoosier. If the cable box has only analogue outs then no DD possible. In this case Pro Logic is the only choice for surround.

You can try to request a box with this feature. Allot of cable companies have them available, but do not include it on all of their boxes to save $$$$$$. AT&T is one of them.

I have a Denon as well and am using an optical cable out of my sattellite box..the Denon automatically picks up the DOlby signal
