surroundphile,

My guess is you never did get correct speaker/room integration to optimize the soundfield from a 2-channel source.

Sorry, but most surround music is artificialy created and sounds artificial in it's playback venue.

If you like it fine, that's your opinion, but for most of us, neophytes pay attention here, it's just a bunch of hype.
