Just wondering who has 7.1?

[dobyblue]

I had 7.1 with all satellites. Now I have 5.1 all full range speakers, which I am much happier with.

When I move into a new house though and get a dedicated HT room with more space I will add another pair of full range speakers to the fronts and move each one back one slot. I'm keeping full range speakers all around in anticipation of the first 7.1 high resolution audio-only release.

That's incorrect, a 7.1 configuration with a 7.1 source like the PCM found on 3:10 to Yuma, is a discrete 7.1 sound, it is not the surround back playing the same thing.
