Author Topic: Dolby CP55 Surround question Michael Harlow Expert Film Handler Posts: 170 From: Faversham, Kent, UK Registered: Jul 2002 posted 12-12-2003 06:03 PM                     Ok, I have now had my CP55 modified to split surround, this is now driving 2 channels on my surround amp, left and right. As we are not running any digital yet, is my surround just mono, using 2 amp channels or do i actually have left and right surround? I am so confused!  |  IP: Logged William T.

As the surround Channel off of the Optical track will not distiquish left surround and right surround information  |  IP: Logged Michael Harlow Expert Film Handler Posts: 170 From: Faversham, Kent, UK Registered: Jul 2002 posted 12-13-2003 07:21 AM                     Thank you William, I guessed that's what was happening.
