I currently have a 5.1 speaker setup with my Yamaha RX-V1400 receiver. This receiver can auto detect the soundtrack and selects either the EX or ES mode on a DVD. I'm wondering about which mode to use when watching movies that have either a DDEX or DTS ES soundtrack. I know these modes are great for a 6.1 or 7.1 setup but do they work well for 5.1? Should I allow the receiver to detect these modes or turn them off since I don't have the rear surround speakers and go with just the Dolby Digital 5.1 track instead?
