You are really laying it on thick.
Do NOT Blow Your Entire Budget on Two Channel Audio
Yes, two channel audio is here, and is not going away. However, object based audio is delightful, widely available on Tidal and Apple Music, and should be in the listening room of every music lover on the planet, not just "audiophiles. If you plan to be a music fan a year from now start building your object based audio system today. You will need:
1) A receiver/processor capable of Dolby Atmos.
2) A subscription to Tidal or Apple music.
3) A Firestick, ATV, or Nvidia Shield.
4) A minimum of 7 timber matched speakers and a subwoofer.
Once you experienced stereo would you ever go back to only mono? No, you would build a system capable of either mono or stereo. Now that object based audio has arrived do the same thing. Build a system capable of mono, stereo, AND object based audio. When Elton John heard Rocket Man in an object based format for the first time why did he demand to convert his entire catalog to Atmos? If you don’t know, then you need to go listen to Rocket Man in a good Atmos setup ASAP.
So, take your budget, DIVERSIFY, and get a good Atmos capable receiver or processor. Object based audio is NOT last decades surround sound or home theater. It is for MUSIC first, if you need a recommendation on how to allocate your budget feel free to post a question. Most importantly, you don’t NEED two systems, one for music and one for movies. A good object based audio system can play two channel music just fine. A two channel system on the other hand can’t play object based audio without a proper processor or receiver.

Both your last posts are incredibly insulting to the majority of forum members and not based in reality. Being older precludes us from having the intelligence to set up a system like the one you're so thick in your pants about??! I'm certain the 'geezer crowd' here can run intellectual circles around you both. Your presumptuous arrogance speaks to your intellectual immaturity. You two kindred spirits should take your age bashing nonsense private. |
@britamerican A few hundred is not dominant did you mean few hundred thousand? Even so most have zero clue what BACCH is outside the audiophile world. But millions know what spatial audio is as they have tried it since it’s on mainstream’s streaming services D o they like and use? Justly still out will they build a 5.1 system just for it, prob not But 5.1 systems have sold and continue to be sold at numbers greater than people like us who have dedicated 2 channel systems. We are the outliers. Also when I said anything will work I was referring to BACCH you just play the 2 ch through the filter no mixing needed as it is with object based object based needs studio work
@kota1 when I said someone has not listened to a proper 51.1 I was was referring for only movies. Not music I do not recall who posted they have heard movies on both and said the 2 ch was just as good.

@fittebd ,
So you get a bit of left right enhancement from the crosstalk rejection. To have spatial information to listen to with the BACCH system there needs to be spatial information in the music. There is no spatial information in the music except some left and right from panning and some tricks for the rest. To get much out of the BACCH system you need newly encoded music (that is why they sell the tools) and no one is going to do that with no market. Best you could hope for is someone transcodes ATMOS.
