You will get surround through Dolby Prologic II. scowl 02-05-07, 05:27 PM I think he's asking if there are any tuners that have both in the same box. (Yes, you can always pipe the output of an HD radio into a Prologic II decoder.) Master Theseus 02-05-07, 05:46 PM I think he's asking if there are any tuners that have both in the same box. (Yes, you can always pipe the output of an HD radio into a Prologic II decoder.) Then the answer is no. Yamaha was the only one that did for a short period, but then they discontinued the model. I heard that Denon will be out sometime this year with one, but again, that vicious rumor mill. mattdp 02-05-07, 06:59 PM I actually played with the Yamah receiver with HD Radio, and it was indeed a nice model (and for $4G, it outta be). scowl 02-06-07, 02:22 PM Are there Dolby Surround radio broadcasts? I only have a couple of concert CDs that are Dolby Surround encoded. Mike Walker 02-06-07, 06:07 PM There's lots of talk in Radio World (Skip Pizzi's column) about "Neural Surround" broadcasts on HD, but I've yet to hear one, or be aware of anyone broadcasting this format. |
