surround processor?


Where to go? Older Lyngdorf MP50, JBL SDP-55,Arcam AV40.Lexicon MC ( the cheapest)? Love to watch the movies but also listened to 2 channel stereo. Are there a big sound difference in those? Just the general advice please. Will probably look into second hand.

No, what’s funny is when someone obviously doesn’t know what they’re talking about and blatantly flaunts it in front of people who do.  Joke’s on you dude. 
If you don't understand the logic in it, then you have my sincere sympathty. 

Don't make stupid assumptions based on ignorance, and don't be afraid to try it. You just might learn sonething and be surprised.


Anyone not famillar with home theatre systems will likely not get timing. 

Home threatre processors have speaker distances. If you read the manual, the distance is so a delays can be incorporated so the sound from every speaker reaches the measuring positon at the exact same time.

After all every surround speaker is not going to be equidistance from the listening position.

There, I hope that taught you something and opened up your mind to new ideas. 

There is no reason to abusive just because you don't have the relevant knowledge.
It's very unfortunate that we have several users on this forum who just continually slam any idea of home theater and multi-channel systems.  Yeah, after 100 duplicate copy-pasted messages on this forum, we get it.  Every channel costs money and ht processors are not necessarily equal to two channel equipment, but at some point this just becomes noise and significant negativity (which is something we need to strive to avoid here).

Um, what?  That has nothing to do with the topic being discussed.  As far as assuming things, I’m very familiar with home theater and enjoy mine immensely, but before I had a dedicated listening room I incorporated a stereo preamp into my HT so I could have the best of both worlds — a setup you’re obviously completely ignorant of.  Maybe someday you’ll understand what’s being discussed here, but in the meantime feel free to reinsert your head back into the sand where apparently it’s most comfortable.  There, I hope I taught you something and opened your little mind to new ideas.
