Have you tried PLII Music and eliminated the Centre channel altogether?
(If you just set the centre image to its Max, the centre channel disappears and your front L&R handle the phantom centre etc.)
Works for me! (y)
So many CDs pan out brilliantly this way! Try things with lots of out of phase info like Stevie Wonder's "Songs In The Key Of Life", you'll be amazed at the pseudo surround effect! :)

Thanks for the tip I'll try that for sure!

Adam - SITKOL - sounds amazing on my Surround Master. Stop buying SACDs for 5 seconds and buy a Surround Master.. with the money you've saved.. you'll be amazed. :D

Haha.. I will get around to getting the Surround Master for sure! (it's on the hardware shopping list, along with a Darbee Darblet and a few other gizmo's I've got no room for and will probably never use!) :eek:

Still for now that stuffs pretty fab in PLII Muzak (and I got that facility for Frrrreeee! No outboard trickery required! Saves me lots of money for SACDs!) :D

Meantime it's all academic anyway, I haven't had time to listen to anything (fake surround or the real thing) for weeks now..
 
PS. Many thanks for your kindness with E Nomine! (Its downloaded but I've not had time to burn! Baby burn!) :eek:

The pleasure is all mine!(Just ask if there's more):D I've tried your PLII setting and it sounds a lot better but the all channel stereo still sounds better (to me). I tried it at low volume though so I'll try again at a more suitable time for high volumes :) .Too many options on those receivers :mad:@:
 
Hi. ALL

So, I have this sort of sampler CD called LEGACY - Rock Artifacts 27 Cut Preview. If I recall, I got it years ago when Stereo Review had a different name (can't recall their name back then) and each month they would offer up what they viewed as critical listening CD's at a very reduced cost. Many times (if I recall) they only charges shipping and you basically got the CD for free. I LOVED that...and have several somewhere. I know for a fact that is how I first heard REAL Jazz and fell in love with the sound.
