RE: How many subs? and should I go from 5.1 to 7.1?

Posted by Ben Van Dyk on March 8, 2010 at 21:55:32:

most would probably disagree with me but instead of having 4 surrounds in the back it will sound better with the 2 front channels by the seating area

It would have to be done on preout with another amp. It would be a regular 5.1 with stereo that you can turn on or off.I have this set up plus a lot of others set ups to make it sound different.it depends on how the disc is recorded.on the digital out I get sound out of the side surrounds on all discs.

some discs dont sound that great so I tweak it.most bd discs I play back in analog so It wont play back in more than 5 channels but it sounds better than digital.the recordings seem to be better I like concert discs. lot of my 5.1 dvd concerts are sub par sounding in the rears.

I use 2 subs if I use another amp my room is small.there both by the tv. I dont like a lot of bass so there not turned up loud.
