What's your opinion of 1-ch, vs. 2-ch vs 3-ch vs 5-ch, etc. ?

148.87.1.170

The decoder seems like a great product, particularly for someone not so sure they want to leave their cherished stereo aside.

What is your opinion of how to improve television sound gradually? Obviously, I can get just a center channel, but then how do I hook it up for the best results, to either L or R or through a processor for C without L and R?

One of my peeves has been the intelligibility of spoken dialog, particularly when I am listening to foreign language films or broadcasts. I have also noticed that my stereo doesn't give me the intelligibility that I want either (which is why I am somewhat uninterested in even trying to integrate the two systems).

My plan currently is to get a center channel such as an Axiom loudspeaker, or two stereo channels (video shielded) and make a go at semi-home theater. An inexpensive good processor could fit into this equation. Do you have any helpful suggestions for me?

Thanks.
