Re: Worth Going to 7.1 from 5.1?

Depends on your room. I have a 26x19 room where the longest dimension is front to back. In this case, I could probably benefit from a 7.1 setup. if the side-to-side dimension is larger, I would suspect 7.1 is wasted. In this case, a 6.1 with rear center might work better.

I may go to 7.1 when I get a processor upgrade and/or decide to replace my aging 5.1 speakers with new set of 7.1 speakers. the current setup leaves "holes" in too many places for a complete "immersive" sound experience.
