The 541, Its Analouge only, so No DD or DTS. It does do Prologic.

It has Meridians own Cinema mode Based on Pro-logic, for films and Music mode, for classical music.
Analouge Pureists will love it!!!

It Has no DVD Logo amongst the options as DVD wasn't around then. Use LD for Laser disc.

It does have plenty of analoge inputs. VCR1, TV, LD, Radio, CD, Tape1/LP.
