I am curious about dipole vs. direct in a 7.1 system. My current system is running at 6.1 with directs on the side and a dipole for the back center.
What I am wondering is if I go up to a 7.1 (in anticipation of 7.1 audio tracks in the future) is there an advantage to having all (or some) dipoles, or would that in fact be a disadvantage?
If you are curious, I am using Athena B2.2's and a R1.2.
Thanks in advance.
