The film is from > 1971, so are you talking about 'simulated' surround modes? You're certainly right about it not being in surround. But a surround system will usually pick up any "difference" present in the audio of sound tracks (or even CDs) and reproduce it as surround. After all, what a surround system does is to create delayed/echo sounds for the rear speakers which your brain interprets as defining a space of a certain size. So if there's REAL echo or delayed sounds bouncing off of objects and captured during filming, a surround system will send them to the rear speakers...sometimes with pleading effects. (Now I'll duck and wait for nit-pickers...) :-) Al Powell Voice: 409/845-2807 Ag Communications Fax: 409/862-1202 107 Reed McDonald Bldg.
