So i recently completed a 5.1 set up using polk audio speakers. I have a sony DH520 receiver and I am trying to make sure i set up the 5.1 setup correctly. I have the correct pattern chosen and when i do tests online to make sure the speakers are correct the rear speakers produce the same noise at the same time. the front 3 all produce their own sound but when it comes to the left and right surround they tend to be in unison between the speakers. is this normal? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

As long as the speakers are hooked up to the proper terminal on the rear of the avr, all is good...

tend to be in unison between the speakers.

Not all materials give you distinctive surround sounds, as long as your TEST SPEAKER procedure gives you distinctive sounds, that's it.

Did you run through the Auto Calibration (page 31 of your manual)?

Auto cal

Ill check into the Auto call part. I believe that the auto call involves a microphone which was unavailable on american models though.
