Default Number of speakers in your H/T setup?....

Just thought I'd get an idea on the average number of speakers folks are running on their H/T setups....

My own 140" CIH, non-AT screen front pj setup consists of a 16-speaker configuration:

Front L&R : 4 (2 above screen & 2 below)
Center: 2 (1 above screen & 1 below) -- I've always found dialog volume levels lacking, especially when the other channels are active -- my 2-speaker solution remedies this)
Side surround: 2
Rear Surround: 2
Subwoofers: 6 (1 in each front corner for more even coverage / 1 exclusively for center channel dialog -- I've always found most home center channel speakers incapable of reproducing the deep, robust quality of commercial theater dialog -- my sub solution addresses this) / 1 for augmenting rear channel efx / 2 Buttkicker 'Silent Subwoofers'.

Ideally, I prefer my H/T's audio to be as immersive as the image.
