I landed a working Sanyo DCX3000KA quad receiver for little money. Am curious about quad sound... mainly the synthesized quad from 2 channel sources and how that sounds.
Check out the pics. The RCA inputs on the back have both 2-channel connections and 4-channel connections.
I only have 2-channel sources to connect (CD player, mp3 player, internet radio streaming, phono). Will I still be able to at least get synthesized 4 channel sound from 2 channel sources connected to the 2 channel connections on the back?
If so, do I use the "matrix" and/or the "SQ Logic" settings on the front?
I will have 2 pairs of speakers connected to the receiver.
I've sought out a manual for this unit or similar ones on Hifi Engine with no success. There's a manual for a similar unit on eBay but with shipping it's over $20. So I'm trying to see if I can get enough info to at least get me up and running.. and listening to what this unit can do.
I know that there are numerous other quad receivers that may produce "better" sound than this unit. I'm just wading in the shallows of quadraphonic sound for now.
Thank you for your help and comments.
