The so-called "Quote found on Stereophile:" is actually two quotes.

The first was from the OP:

As soon as I have more than two ears I will get more than a two-channel system.
Sorry, just being silly. I have a surround system also but did not spend much on it compared to my 2-channel system because to me, movie surround is made up of a bunch of sounds that are completely unrealistic and so over done as to be stupid. Why waste money to reproduce something inaccurate?

The second is from me:

Straw man argument. On the 2ch system, you listen to music which, apparently, you care about. On the MCH system, you listen to movies which you do not find satisfying or accurate.
