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.

I have operated a four speaker stereo system
for years (2 Mcintosh amps, four speakers, one sub
Meridian cd player).

I have had so many people listen to a multi-channel sytem,
then listen to mine and always ask why music sounded so much better on mine.

IT"S FOR MUSIC and not just a couple of cd's.
I do not get caught up in trying to be a live performance.
I get caught up in listening to music.
That is what changed me forever in my systems.
Studio recordings sound better than MOST live recordings.

The four speaker stereo systems I have had always sounded
better to me and many others than any 5.1/7.1 system in
listening to music. I actually have seperate volume controls for each set of speakers so I can properly
mix the different recording types. A 1968 Stones CD sounds different than a 2005 Patricia Barber CD. They both sound great on my system.

You do need good equipment. The break is you have a ton
of music that sounds better rather than a few cd/dvd's.
I would never ever bash what is one person's great
system. Most of us on here have spent tons of money,
experimented more than most scientists, have made maybe that one bad purchase of audio equipment because of some
reviewer, and just tried to hard to bash someone's utopia.

Multi-channel......stereo......mono.......
WHATEVER GETS YOUR FOOT TAPPING !!!!

I agree.....bring on the PHILISTINES WITH BOSE SPEAKERS
AS THEIR WEAPONS !!!!!!
