7 ch Preamp question


I know some people have 7 channel setups, and i have considered it, but i'm wondering how much practical use is it ? I only know of a couple of 6.1 or 7.1 dvd's, and don't know of any 7 ch music, can someone enlighten me ? thanks alot,
Reade.

If you visit the DD-EX or DTS-ES websites you can find information on every movie release that has been encoded in those formats. There are a handfull (mainly action movies, though Punch Drunk Love was too) that are encoded.

Tangent-7.1 is completely supperfluous for teh vast majority of installations. The room is usually just not big enough to warrant it. In very large rooms I like 6.1 to fill in the rear.
