    OK, so here are your first comments. They are not really about the article or the original post. They are comments about what I posted and nothing much else. Maybe you need to re-read your own comments. Also, go back and note that not ONCE did you respond to the OP or the article, but rather played your normal game of picking apart everyone else replies sentence by sentence.

    Have you ever been to a concert where all of the information hitting your ears is coming from the front only? I highly doubt it. How about the crowd noises happening from behind a orchestra? Not in any concert hall or venue I have been in.



    You must be talking to folks in a reverberation chamber, because multichannel system are outselling 2 channel system by at least 20-1 based on NDP recent survey.

    Anecdotal stories are only valuable within your own world. Your opinions have always been based on myths, outdated, recycled anecdotal information, and talk from a single minded crowd.

    Cherry pick much?. I think you do this because I addressed your comments first - which by the way were stupid. But let's check out my comments with Smoke which address the article directly - can we George Washington(maybe he could not tell a lie, but you did).

    He is not correct on so many fronts. Steve has openly admitted that he has never owned a quality surround system. So his perspective is rather limited in the first place. He also openly admitted that he lays down when he listens to music. That is not great for either 2 channel or multichannel. Steve is a casual music listener, and there are some of us who are active listeners who listen to music like we listen in a concert venue or hall.

    Welp.... Stevo's at it again!!!!! This time Surround Sound is dead!!!!
