[QUOTE="noggin, post: 1040652, member: 344195"] Are you using HDMI or the Coax SPDIF digital audio output ? Lots of modern AVRs support DD+ over HDMI (it dates back to the HD-DVD standard, but Blu-rays also use it), and now Netflix and Amazon are using DD+ some devices may also accept it over Toslink/Coax SPDIF connections (as well as ARC) I've got an SX88 coming - will report back my experiences with both a 2008 Onkyo and 2016 era Denon (both support DD+ over HDMI) Could it be Octagon haven't licensed a DD+ decoder (to output PCM stereo over HDMI) but don't block bit streaming ? (DD patents ran out a while ago, but DD+ is still patented, and if you were to sell a receiver with unlicensed decoding you'd be on dangerous ground with Dolby's lawyers) [/QUOTE]
