The 2-channel only sound is a limitation of the streaming from Netflix, not of the 95 player. My understanding is that Netflix is supposed to improve the quality/functionality of their streaming in the future. I would recommend running a coaxial digital out of the 95 to your MX136 for those instances where you want to decode 2-channel into Dolby PLIIx to have matrix surround sound available. You can assign the same input and just switch from External to Cinema 1. It also makes the audio calibration work out much better based on the instructions I wrote out in my previous post.
