I have a 7.1 processor (Aragon Stage One). I bought 4 surround speakers (2 rear, 2 side) and have them all hooked up and running fine with test tones. I've had it for a while, but being mainly a 2 channel (music) guy I haven't played around much with it. Room is 17 1/2W x 24L x 8H.
Problem to me, is I don't really get anything out of the rear channels when watching movies. Reading the literature it seems only those movies with ES or EX (?) markings will really do anything back there.
I don't know that any of my incredibly small collection of movies has this. Anybody out there really find 6.1 or 7.1 to a useful advantage over 5.1? Any movies in particular that show this well? I'm darn near considering just hooking up all four as 5.1 so that they at least play for all movies. Am I nuts (well, yes, but about this thought)?

- I know there are processors out there which can synthesize 5.1 or 7.1 - oscar 19:26:34 09/18/07 (2)

- I could use "side fills" because of the room dimensions. - oscar 06:44:57 09/19/07 (0)
