RE: Looking for inmate opinions about multichannel

Yes, but it is fraught with possible problems due to volume mismatches. It might easily generate an unnecessarily negative opinion, because it is easy to screw up the sound.

It is important to calibrate a Mch system for equal volume all around on test tones. But, you will have a hard time keeping this in synch as volume adjustments are made on two systems to deal with program differences. Maybe, if both systems have a digital volume readout, you can calibrate the two systems more or less together in terms of relative dB difference.

I know some have tried this. One was Robert E. Greene who writes for TAS. I tried to tell him he was getting a totally wrong impression of Mch, which he certainly was, because he was messing with the approach you described. He got defensive and tossed me out of his forum for trying to help him see the error of his ways.
