You really have to try them out. Sound is subjective and everyone has their own personal tastes. I still have yet to try all of the surround modes on my TX-SR805 cause I'm so busy trying out all of the other features.

Isn't there something called NORMAL??
Sort of kidding here, but, really, all that money for a great multi-channel audio amp, seems like any "mode" would simply distort the natural output. What am I missing? |

I've mostly use the "Dolby Pro Logic IIx" and switch between movie and music, depending on what I'm listening to.
You have the 805 so I would be interested to see how the THX modes sound.
