How can you not have multichannel system


I just finished listening to Allman Bros 'Live at the Fillmore East" on SACD, and cannot believe the 2-channel 'Luddites' who have shunned multichannel sound. They probably shun fuel injected engines as well. Oh well, their loss, but Kal has it right.

First off, you should note that I did not, in any way, criticize your listening preferences, just this particular attempt to justify them.

Kr4, the only naive statement is yours. If this statement continues to pop up in every discussion could it be there might be some vitality to it? You observation was not only incorrect but quite rude as well.
The reason it always pops up is that there seems to be an infinite number of people who do not understand the physiology of hearing. Had you put a smiley at the end of the statement, it would have been treated appropriately but, as you offered it, it is evidence of a lack of knowledge.

If you believe I am incorrect in my judgment, I invite you to explain why having only two ears has any relationship to the sufficiency of having only two discrete sound sources.

Kal is correct.

Since I installed my multichannel system I have evolved three addition ears, one on my forehead and two on the back of my head. I remain fearful of where my subwoofer ear will grow.

LOL! I've seen a guy who had four subwoofers in his system, and they weren't pretty. May not be too bad if you have one subwoofer.

Eldartford,

I broke out into such a paroxysm of laughter with your comments that my subwoofer ear started making embarrassing noises.
