My preferred arrangement would be 3 front speakers, no surrounds. Naturally there would no video screen to obstruct the center speaker.Some advantages of this format:
(1) Compatible with 2 channel playback (using "phantom" center mode)
(2) Data space efficient
(3) Does not require new recording techniques; a simple upgrade of stereo
(4) Many old recordings can be reissued in 3 channel stereo
