I have the space and now run a 7.1 setup, but most (if not all) blu-rays come in a 5.1 mix. So it seems unnecessary to carry the extra rear speakers for blu. However, the AVR does a nice job applying the extra sound mix on HD channels to the legacy Dolby Digital.

Sounds like bipolar may be right for folks unable to mount the extra rear surrounds.
