In reality it's not that big a deal. Most content creators
understand this and don't put any significant content above


80 Hz

or so in the LFE track.


So it doesn't do this in DVDA/SACD?



My knowledge of DVDA/SACD is limited. However, I assume they
don't have an LFE channel and wouldn't have this issue.


Oh - one more question:

Let's say you have a 5.1/6/1/etc setup and are listening to movies.

Given that this low-frequency cutoff effect is in place, what is
the point where such response is virtually non existant in the
surround channels? This might be nice to put in the FAQ as if
there is virtually nothing below 50hz, for instance, then buying
large surrounds is a moot point - just shop for 50hz capable bookshelfs
and ther you go.
