Who's out of date? Rbinck? I don't think so. Actually, I think anything over 5.1 is overkill. My Denon receiver will handle 6.1 but I chose not to bother with the center rear channel. I think 2 in the back is just fine, but that's just my personal opinion. I doubt many others go to the extreme of 7.1 , and I can't even imagine 13.1 because at some point it just doesn't seem like you could notice the incremental difference. Maybe if I heard it I'd think differently, but I can't imagine the impact of those extra 8 channels being more significant than going from stero to 5.1 (just IMHO).....
