I use only 4 channels: front L/R and rear L/R. My front channels have large woofers and so need no subs, and I run a phantom center channel for movies.
But under DSP, when 4 channel is selected, I cannot mix the center to the L/R speakers and the LFE (subwoofer) is on, so this is effectively 4.1 (not 4.0) with no center mixable to the front L/R.
If I run 5.1, I can turn this into 4.1 by mixing the centers to the L/R speakers, but I cannot mix the LFE to the L/R speakers.
I know that many HiRez classical music recordings do not use LFE or center channels, so can we please get a 4.0 with centers mixed to front L/R, or, a 5.1 that can mix the LFE into the front L/R (as well as keeping the center mixable)? Thanks.
