Author Topic: CP650(incl.EX)>DPF-D2000>CM680>Amps... Oliver Pasch Film Handler Posts: 53 From: Europe Registered: Jun 2002 posted 06-08-2006 03:11 PM                    Dear all, i'm currently planning a setup that makes me think about what to do with the wiring of the surround-channels. Maybe someone's got an idea or has already been confronted with the same challenge. Cinema-Processor is supposed to be a DOLBY CP650 (incl. EX) Output-Wiring: 1 DB-25 for the front-channels, another DB-25 for the 4 surround-channels Designation: USL CM-680 incl. active-cross-over No problem until here! But: there's a SONY DFP-D2000 for SDDS supposed to be inserted here. My thoughts here are, that it will obviously need to be put in front of the CM-680 for monitoring- and cross-over-purposes. But it needs to be behind the CP650. What to do with the surround-channels here, as the DFP-2000 only supports two surround-channels in 5.1-layout? And has only one DB-25 for both stage-channels, LFE and 2 surround-channels!? Ext.6-Channel input at the CP650 is already occupied by a dts-XD-10. Any "custom-made"-solutions available, that actually link wall- and back-surround-channels when SDDS is playing? What about level-alignment? Or might it be easier to forget about the CP-650 and order a CP-650D, so no EX-stuff up to the SDDS-unit, then a SA-10 and then the CM-680, which would also enable us to play SDDS-8-plus-EX if available, making it 8.1-audio. I'm really looking forward to learn your opinions on this! ThanxX and best regards or sincerely (wherever you live on this planet...) Oliver  |  IP: Logged
