As for the recent questions, the reason that I inserted my Smyth A8 in the signal flow from my Blu-ray player HDMI output to the YARRA 3DX was to be able to demonstrate the solo function. I've found soloing the individual channels of a 5.1 surround mix very convincing. I start with the left front, then move to the center front, followed by the right front. Everyone hears the sound in front of them. But when I solo the right surround channel and the sound appears to come from over the listener's right shoulder, the demonstration is taken to a whole new level. The number of times the person turns to look to the spot where the sound appears to come from or smiles broadly is quite high.
The use of my own PRIR and HPEQ has not been a problem. I've demoed both ways and like building up to having all channels turned on.

Thank you very much, Dr. AIX, for your additional explanations and informations. Can I please have two more answers.The near field and far field modes are just two of seven different modes of operation. As I did at the show, you can send already binauralized two-channel information into and beam to near or far fields. The wide dispersion mode for stereo models a large sound field...regular stereo music sound quite a bit larger than it would from the array. I play stereo programming with Near Field Mode all the time. If more than 3 locations are being beamed anyone outside of those locations gets regular stereo. I hope this helps.
It seems you always use Yarra in Near Field Mode. Is it because of the (possible) fact that in the Far Field Mode beaming would not be precise enough? Here I have especially Realiser's output in mind. This is very important to me because I don't have Near Field position available, but a place 4 meters away from my TV (and possible sound projector).
Can you also please list for me these seven different modes of operation and tell - are they completely independent or they (can) come in combinations? Or was it maybe already described somewhere? Maybe you even already have user manual in some form? Thank you in advance.
