My introduction to multichannel was a Corelli SACD that seems a shame to listen to in stereo, because of the sense of ambience that it captures. Kal has since suggested two more mch Corelli discs that I really enjoy. Kal and I differ on the need for a center channel, but I agree with his eschewing artificially derived mch.
If your stereo amp has pass-through capability, you could try a used moderately priced processor or even AVR for the surround channels to decide if it's worth the investment. I started with the front LR from a Cary Cinema 11a passed through my Parasound JC 2 BP to access a pair of JC 1 monoblocks. The 11a was replaced by a 12 then a Bryston SP3. The 11a is sitting in a closet and available if your interested.
