Wow, like unclejeff said Total unanimity, and that doesnt happen here very often. Tempted to be the chef who spoiled the soup
No, just kidding. Seriously, I too agree that two channels is the way to go with. Even if the surround channels are used for ambience information, to me it still feels weird. Just that feeling of something aint right
I was told that SACD format was never meant to be multi channel, but to get the average Joes attention Sony succumbed to it. For he who doesnt hear the extra resolution, at least more noise was needed! Well, coming from all the sides.
I am breaking in a Xindak SCD-2 and couldnt be happier with SACD format. In fact an avid proponent of multi channel who owns a XA-777ES listened to some of his favourite SACDs in my two-channel system and now eating crows !!
