Yeah, the AVR8000 that I saw at CES last year was, I believe, the first to offer a full 7 channels of sound.

It bears mentioning that Logic 7 is a true 7 channels of sound, and hence is correctly referred to as 7.1 sound, whereas Dolby Digital EX is not, since the rear channels are not discrete, but are only matrixed into the sides.
