Multi-channel for music anyone?

[Hyfi]

I have a stereo system and HT M/C system. I regard the former to be my "main" system but I've be known to listen to multichannel music content, SACDs and DVD-As on the latter.

M/C does have the potential to convey a more realistic music hall experience than stereo possibly can.

Yeah, what he said....

I find great Joy in listening to 2 ch. and multi. I think they both have their advantages. Most music does sound best in 2ch. A solid high quality player can really bring to life a well engineered Redbook disc. But my high resolution DVD-A/SACD format stuff sound sweet! In two channels or multi, you can’t beat the clarity and detail. I have also listened to some Multi channel Blu-ray music and the quality is incredibly, My hopes are that Blu-ray takes hold and blu-ray audio becomes more available, I would rather see a high resolution format like Blu-ray become mainstream then The next generation of MP3 players.
