This is where the incalculable (literally) advantage over vinyl of well done multi-channel comes into play. When listeners, even seasoned audiophiles, are introduced to well done multi-channel equate it to "you are there", the exaggeration of the phrase is perceptibly diminished. Of course, the "you are there" suspension of disbelief has been with us audio nuts since Thomas Edison. But the gap reduction is graphically illustrated in a way I have never heard with a two channel rig of any price. There are, simply, so fewer dots to connect. It is so much more than just 3 additional speakers, just as the synergy of stereo over mono is tough to compute.
