Re: 2 channels doesn't re-create the soundscape

Yes,

Two channel can sound GREAT, but it does NOT create the soundfield the director intended you to hear.

For example, a jet flying over above you from right front to left rear will NOT be recreated in your listening room with any realism using the current 2 channel output from DVD players today.

To recreate that realism (designed by the director) you need one of the DD5.1 or DTS5.1 decoders providing output to multiple speakers.
