How can you not have multichannel system


I just finished listening to Allman Bros 'Live at the Fillmore East" on SACD, and cannot believe the 2-channel 'Luddites' who have shunned multichannel sound. They probably shun fuel injected engines as well. Oh well, their loss, but Kal has it right.

Are you two joined at the hip? I don't remember being called any names and I don't remember calling anyone a name other than stating those who don't like mc music are Luddites, but I didn't single out anyone. I would call the use of the word resent strong and almost begging for a reply, especially given the underlying hypocricy of the poster. One goal I set out for when I started this thread was to provoke people who don't like mc music to post their reasons. And I care about mc music, because using other methods to extract surround sound short of remixing is a matter of trickery. To take stereo recordings and put them through dsp is not the same as remixed mc music. And I see the industry basically allowing sacd and dvd audio to die a slow death, leaving a cavernous hole for us audiophiles who believed mc music was the next great advancement for sound quality and experience.
Guess you forgot this snide comment, which basically resorts to name calling.:

Mr. Smuck, no, I won't attempt to cook your steak, but nice 'Vegas' effect with your system, or were you trying to imagine what a hi-fi system would look like on the 'Enterprise'.

No one here ever stated that multi channel versions of older recordings were processed stereo mixes. If you came away with that impression, then you misunderstood what was written.

To remix a recording into multi-channel by essentially laying the left and right tracks into the rear left and right channels but a a lower volume is a trick no matter how you describe it. This is what was observed by an owner of the "Blood on the Tracks" multi channel remix. Rather than the word trick, let's use the word technique. Nevertheless, no article on the mixing technique used on "Blood on the Tracks" was ever discovered or read, so we have no definitive answer to what was mixed into the surround channels.

I believe I explained my use of the word trick many posts ago, yet you to choose to hang onto the word rather than learn from what I explained afterward.

No progression in the discussion. That's the take-away here. That and your bitterness at multi channel being left behind to wither.
Mig007, joined at the hip??? What the hell are you talking about? Me and Tvad???
But again I agree with Tvad. Your posting is insincere and ill-founded. Don't like being called on such then don't post.
"What the hell are you talking about? Me (Tbg) and Tvad???"

My thoughts exactly when I read this.

LOL!
