How can you not have multichannel system

Mig007, you're funny.

One thing that many of you critics of multi-channel forget is that Mig007 has matched speakers...

IMHO, if you use different speakers that were not specifically intended and voiced (matching timbre) to work together in a multi-channel system then you generally get a dogs breakfast (what else could one expect?).

IMHO, if you also decide to poor boy surround speakers you get poor boy sound.

The biggest challenge with surround sound is the huge cost required to achieve similar quality as two channel and the limited amount of good material (there is so much more out there for two channel)

having a multi channel system for movies and the limited amount of recordings that take use of it's full benefits

that would be like owning a ferrai with only one fun challenging road to drive it on

I'd much rather concentrate on a 2 channel system for the pure emotion of music

I finally made the jump on multi last year and it's been fun but I couldn't ever invest for the multi mega buck multi version

Troglodyte?

Sure, the number of mch recordings is limited but, as I have more than 2000 of them, I think my investment in a multichannel music system (or three) is justifiable. ;-)
