Couple of things occur...some of which has perhaps already been mentioned.

The room for HT / 5.1 must be proper for hifi. Most aren't. Setup / treatments could get extreme.
The source material should be recorded with 5.1 in mind. Most isn't. 2ch thru a 5.1 system can start sounding........glitzy
Equal costing systems favor 2 ch. Less is more.
A single sub, properly setup and crossed over low enough is fine, though.
