In Reply to: 6.1 or 7.1, is it worth doing more than 5.1? posted by kvk on December 12, 2007 at 08:43:51:
The attention to detail in the original recording and surround mixing matters more than how many speakers are used. Even though I'm in a small room, I plan on updating (I don't want to say upgrading, because that isn't exactly accurate) to a 7.1 setup soon, just to be able to access what the filmmaker wants me to hear. Beyond 7.1, they can forget it.
I actually have the speakers...just need to find the right 7.1 HDMI 1.3 preamp...maybe something will be announced at CES.
