You cannot achieve the same overall quality by having more of lesser quality equipment. Pick your 2-channel performance (and cost) level, and then find the money to do it 5 times instead of two. Skimping on center and rear channels, and downgrading the fronts, is why many audiophiles don't like multichannel.
Moved from 2 channel to Home Theatre - Regrets?
I'm moving to a new home and the floorplan is more conducive to combining my 2 channel system and very modest home theatre.
My 2 channel system is Quad CPD99,Aragon 4004mkII,GMA Europa and all Audience AU24,PowerChord cables.
Home theatre is a budget Pioneer DVD,Outlaw 1050 receiver,PSB 4T speakers,Signal Audio cable.
Did you ever sell your 2 channel gear,buy better home theatre gear(so music sounds good too) and regret it?
It would seem like speaker choice would be the most interesting part of this transition,that is why I posted in
the speaker forum.
Thanks - Jack
