I'm about to buy speakers & an amp and really scratching my head about whether it's worth getting the traditional 5.1 setup, or going for 6.1 or 7.1.
Has anyone here heard the difference? How much better is 6.1 than 5.1? And how much better 7.1 is than 6.1?
It'll be my first surround system, so I'll probably love it even if it's just 5.1, but I'd like to get 7.1 for the sake of making my purchase future-proof. (Plus, how cool is it to have 8 speakers in your living room!!!)
