What I never liked about 5.1 systems regardless of price / quality / features, is they are intended for one primary use, recreating a cinema hall in your living room. These units will do a fine job at that too. However, I have found listening to music on these systems to be undesirable. Some systems have bandpass subwoofers that are way to boomy for certain types of music, like classical. I like bass a lot, but I like bass that is tight, defined, and natural sounding. I like being able to tell different bass tones apart from each other. 5.1 is also great for movies and off screen effects, but do you sit on stage with a musical performance or in front of of the stage? For music, two channels is enough for me.
My 2 cents. :-)
