There are some very valid points made in this thread both
pro and con for multi channel HT sound. As someone who has
owned a video editing and media duplication firm for the past 12+ years - I'm frankly amazed at the constantly
shifting standards for HT. Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital,
DTS, THX, and on and on. Try and find a decent supply of
software in any of these "formats" that can be played back
with any sort of decent fidelity.
Quite frankly, I regard most of the lower cost HT hard-
ware as a way for the Sonys, Panasonics, and Kenwoods of
the world to separate the gullible from their money. Anybody
want to buy a Dolby Pro Logic Pre-Amp?
