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.

Mig007, I just cannot under stand, why some cannot understand why the cost of doing multichannel for the limited use it has. I heard some benefit in Kimber's presentation at CES with well over $200,000 worth of equipment using his most limited recordings. Sorry, I just not interested.
Funny Mig007, just this morning I was spinning American Beauty on early issue vinyl, which sounds pretty spectacular, thanks more to 2ch audiophile Owlsey Stanley than to subsequent remixers.
Mig007, after the thorough discussion, how can you not believe it? The reasons for and against have been well argued. Some will choose 2 channel while others will go for the multichannel.
Let it go brother.
BTW, who is this Kal character?
I just finished listening to Jackson Browne's 'Running on Empty' on dvd audio . . . (Kal is my master, he is telepathing these multichannel discs to me and I then post)
I have "Running on Empty" on both DVD-Audio and vinyl, and there is no comparison, the stereo vinyl is much better. Richer, deeper, more involving. Of course, I have a modest disc player now, and what I consider a very good turntable, so that may have something to do with it......

Surround is dead, buy some flowers, stock up on your Quadrophonic (oops sorry, SACD and DVD-Audio same thing) recordings and have a de-Nile party. The fat lady has sung......
