Onkyo 605 & PS3 question
Discussion
My ps3 is just set to auto.
I did have some explicit settings for the ps3 was wasn't sure if it was working properly so just set back to auto.
My onkyo is running 6.1 as I don't have the room for 7.1 speaker setup so I use the Neo 6 cinema sound mode. I like the sound for gaming as well as movies.
Unless its a BluRay I'm watching on ps or htpc I'll then hit the pure button on the amp for TrueHD Audio and you get the funky blue light on..
I have had a little test of other modes but I always end up back at Neo6Cinema as my preferred setting.

nah i dont think there is a correct setting; i would guess it could change and would depend on source and setup and your own preferences.
i run 6.1, so im not sure if Neo 6 Cinema is the best for me because im running 6.1 [which i think its optimised for], or if i was running 5.1 then maybe Theatre Dimens (which is what i used to use when i first got the amp) may be the best.
Its prob worth finding a good movie (with a minute of action and talking?) and do an A-B repeat with listening to each of the settings?
once you've found something you like the sound of you'll just always find yourself going with it anway for all your movies etc.
re: ps3 auto... erm im not sure now(!). ive been playing with it again recently (trying to setup some DD headphones for gaming) and im sure i selected something in the ps3 menu to auto rather than ticking all the boxes (as i wasnt sure what boxes to tick!), but looking at the online manual the "auto" option is not there so i'll have to check on that
