You don't HAVE to have 5.1/7.1 for good sound and movie enjoyment. You obviously won't get the "surround" effect with 2 channels, but it can still be good nonetheless. In fact, I'ld go so far as to say I'ld rather have a really high quality 2 channel system than a low-mid quality 5.1.

I do think I could manage without the surrounds, but really skeptical that I would be okay without a center. And, one you add that extra channel, means that you need your prepro and amplification, so what not just add 3 more channels! I have all the gear for 5.1 channels... just it would be nice for simplicity sake to jump down to 2.1.

  I'm doing 2 channel, and haven't needed a center channel. Dialog is quite legible-you get a kind of phantom center channel. Things in the center sound in the center.
