A little too close too often :-(


It is worth noting that films worth watching tend not to
have all the odd channels. Films with loud noises and explosions
rather than a decent plot and good acting need noise coming at you
from all angles.


The two are not mutually exclusive. Good action movies benefit from good
spatial sound with wide range response and high dynamic range. Love
stories not so much.


That being said, there is much more to good audio
recording than multiple channels.


Likewise multiple channels does not make bad audio good, or necessarily
make good audio bad. Simply more of a challenge to get right.
