Hey. I've been wondering about this for a while so I figured I'd ask some "experts". I've had my CLD-59 for a few years and it's been a great player. I send the image and sound via composite through my inexpensive analog/HDMI converter to my receiver(an ONKYO HT-R391). I have noticed on several laserdiscs(Evil Dead 2, Giant Monster Gamera, Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, etc.) where the disc is list as mono or dual stereo I am getting sound, and quite good sound at that, coming from my all my speakers including the rear ones. Obviously I am not complaining but, how is this happening Are the discs labeled incorrectlly? Does the HDMI converter have something to do with it? Just looking to satisfy my curiosity.

Thanks for the responses. I always thought it might have something to do with the receiver setting, which is have at 5.1. The confusing part is that it doesn't do it to all my mono LDs. That's why I thought there might be something else to it(disc, converter, etc.).
While we are on the subject, and again these are not complaints, how come all my laserdiscs sound louder/fuller at lower settings than my TV,DVDs,Blu Rays? I usually have the volume at about 38-40 when watching the aforementioned media. But when I throw in the laserdisc, it is booming and much louder. I usually turn it down to about 26-28. I'm guessing this might be converter related since the LD player is the only component going through it.
Either that or it'a as all us laserdisc enthusiasts always say, nothing sounds better than a laserdisc.
