Answering to your comments:


- almost every Blu-Ray disk has either Dolby or DTS 7.1 sound track.
This addresses issue of 7.1 source.


Not true. *Most have 5.1.

- I already have 5.1 HT setup at home. So upgrading to 7.1 should not
be difficult with new AV receiver and additional pair of speakers.


Assuming your room layout permits.

* From now on I will be looking AV receiver that exp[lisitely made
for 4ohm speakers.


None are. *All are made for 8ohms but many will accommodate 4ohm
speakers as well.

Kal,

what do you mean by phrase "Assuming your room layout permits"?

What is the minimal requirement for putting 7.1 setup in a room?

Thanks in advance.
