Agree, and disagree :-)

Hi Richard

>>Many people criticize their system, when in fact, a live band would not sound particularly good in their own room.<<
Yes, I agree with you there. I have heard a relatively modest system produce a soundstage that went FAR beyond the walls of the room. The room was simply not there. I think this is one area where too little attention is focussed.

>>it still take's a minimum of five channels and five speakers to create a decent reproduction of what you would hear in a night club or auditorium... Two-channel stereo is an old dinosaur on it's way out but we just don't realize it yet.<<
Can't disagree more. I think that a good two-channel system will still provide the best sound, IF the recording is done properly (NO MULTI-MIKING!!), and if it is set-up properly.

Just my $0.02, YMMV :-)

Enjoy,
Deon
