One other item:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Digital>
Halfway down:
" Many Dolby Digital decoders are equipped with downmixing
functionality to distribute
" encoded channels to available speakers. This includes such functions
as playing
" surround information through the front speakers if surround speakers
are unavailable,
" and distributing the center channel to left and right if no center
speaker is available.
If nothing else, switch to MONO until you can afford a proper setup.
Going to MONO
will put dialogue in both the L and R channels.
