I have 6 speakers (3 front, 2 rear, and 1 sub), but my receiver can only handle Dolby Pro-Logic.

Should I be turning on the DD 5.1 sound, or the Dolby 2.0 ?

Thanks

either one as the DVD player will automatically downmix it. However, I would go with the premade 2.0 track as it's probably gonna sound a bit better as it was mixed for Pro Logic originally unlike the 5.1 track.

If you only have a pro-logic reciever 5.1 will give you no added benefit. Stick with the 2.0 setup... You really need to get a DD reciever. The difference is night and day.

Agreed. Save up as fast as you can and get a 5.1 receiver!
