I was reading this article on the new Super Hi Vision http://dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=7466

Then I came across this sentence

Quote :

"While today’s best home theaters have 7.1 setups, the audio component paired with Super Hi-Vision is 22.2."

How in the hell do they expect anyone to buy over 20 speakers and why in the hell do you need 2 subs? I hope this is intended for theaters only.

"After a long, brain-breaking discussion about digital-to-analog converters and transient waves, he put on the theme song from The Pink Panther. I could almost smell the brass of the high-hat. After that, we listened to assorted symphonies, Peter Gabriel and New Order. It was an almost schizophrenic experience -- I heard background voices, breaths and sounds that I'd never perceived before on other speakers."

22.2 is like what they have in CLT's omnimax

there'd be no hiding speakers in your living room if there was 22 of them

Or you just make a stripe around the room with the speakers in wall
