I have 5 HTM-200SE's and a AV123 MFW-15 Sub. Very happy listening to music and most DVDs, but it seems I'm losing a bunch of high's watching HDTV. I just noticed how "bad" it was tonight while watching I Am Legend. I have Dish Networks VIP722 STB, optical to Onkyo 805. 805 shows to be receiving DD, and sounds "OK". Dialog could be louder, but effects are great.
Problem: I can mute the TV speakers (which I normally do when 805 is on), but if I unmute the TV, I hear a lot of sounds through the TV I don't hear through the 805 (or 200SE's).. sounds like crickets, birds, water running, and other "high" frequency type sounds. Now I know the 200's are capable, but there must be "something" wrong with my set-up, in that when I mute the TV, all those sound disappear (completely). TV = 50PX600U.
Any suggestions?
