I expect that you may need extra space to have 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound but do you really need that much space? |
Yes we do because technology is all about timing. SACD failed because Sony released it to early. If they would have waited another year or two the format might have been successful. The space needed for 7.1 surround sound is quite large and with prices for a 7.1 sound system lowering and becoming more and more affordable the more of the general population will want support for it.
