Speaking of CDs and such, I have something to
Ask BK :
This is probably a stupid question, but are Kritzerland CD mixes created with traditional two-channel stereo playback in mind, even on today's multi-channel receivers? Are there exceptions?
I was a late-comer to surround sound at home, setting up my first decent system only two years ago. The receiver I chose needed to not only process movie tracks wonderfully, but also assume the duties of a traditional stereo amp in being the hub for turntable and other goodies. (I added a decent outboard phono pre-amp.) It was my belief then, and is now, that traditional stereo sources should be appreciated in their own element, not "processed" in any number of schemes by the receiver. Not that I don't experiment now and then. But I'm a purist at heart, and always force the system into plain old stereo when enjoying regular CDs and records and tapes. I'll bet a lot of people don't pay much attention to that stuff, but it makes sense to me.
