Javier_Huerta,
The .1 channel is a "special effects" channel. Nothing more. It's merely used to add some extra oomph to on-screen explosions and stuff like that. It was never designed as a music medium!The .1 channel was indeed included in the "design" of both (DVD-A & SACD) HiRez musical formats. It was/is also used by DD 5.1 music & DTS 5.1 music.
I believe the problem with this thread starts with the misuse of the .1 channel as mixed by some no nothings & the lack of understanding and appreciation of a discrete channel.
I pity anyone that has not had the opportunity to hear .1 music mix that shows off, just what this channel can do.
Viva la Raza!
