I have never been to an event where they had speakers in the back of a room so the band was playing in surround. Nor have I ever been to a symphony where they made sure to have a second orchestra playing in the back either. All concerts I have been to had the music coming from the front and any "surround" was purely reflective. Don't get me wrong, if you find surround to be a more realistic presentation and it trips your musical trigger, I say fantastic. I, on the other hand, have always found two channel stereo sufficient and surround to be distracting.

- And music from a 2-channel system also has reflected sound; engineers realize this (good ones) and so create. - tinear 16:05:10 07/15/12 (1)

- Ambisonic encoding / recording may get much closer to correct surround recording. Interesting link, - cfb 12:28:21 07/15/12 (1)
