Esteemed Colleagues:
I currently use an H/K AVR 354 as my main system. As most are aware, the unit features Dolby PL II, DTS Axis 6, and Logic 7 processing, as well as AV processing and 2 channel. I've had the unit about 6 years now and like it very much. When listening to CD's in multichannel I've noticed that the Logic 7 seems to alter the spectral balance of the recording. (note; I listen mainly to orchestral classical music ) When using the Dolby PLx II, there is no change in timbral accuracy, at least as far as far as my aged hearing will allow. I've compared both to 2 channel and found this to be the case, that PLx II is closer to the sound of 2 channel. Has anyone here found this to be the case as well? I wonder if my receiver is malfunctioning and unfortunately no one in the Puget Sound region seems to carry H/K stuff, so that I can compare.
