Unsound nailed it. If I ever do integrate multichannel with my stereo system, it will strictly be supplemental. My Line 1 has throughputs that should make it easy. I do wish a company would produce a high end multichannel processor and 3 channel amp in one box. It would work for most of us.
Stereo or Home Theater?
What do Stereo-only people think about Home Theater, and what do Home Theater people think about Stereo-only. I perceive that there is quite a gulf in ideas about proper reproduction between these types. My take is that Home Theater is the new mid-fi, with Video as the centerpiece, and audio going along for the ride. Some think I am anachronist. What do you think?
