Chesky likes 4.0; he like 6.0 even more!

I was never a Chesky fan until recently. He likes 4.0 for a lot of the reasons posted here (poor center channel logistics, etc) and his DVD-A recordings sound absolutely fantastic in 4.0 (and even better in 6.0). Chesky's Swing Live DVD-A (Bucky Pizzarelli) conveys a tremendous sense of depth, warmth and soundstage, and doesn't utilize a center channel.

As for 6.0, his idea is to use the center and sub channels for a couple of height channels, located slightly higher and to the outside of the main l and r (but not sides, per se). I experimented with it (pita) and it sounded great, but is too cost-prohibitive and has poor WAF.
