How many would you like for it to be?

Recording 9 channels for 2nd order is a little unattractive in a world in which 
audio interfaces typically come in groups of 8.  But if one is willing to 
consider recording only horizontal (5 channels) or mixed order with 2nd-order 
horizontal and 1st order vertical (6-channels), it becomes a lot more 
tractable. 
 Both of those handily fit within the capabilities of the Tascam DR-680, for 
instance.  

There are other considerations.  Although we might like to record 
periphonically 
for a future-proof recording, therre are some real difficulties associated with 
trying to reproduce 2nd order material with-height using a loudspeaker array 
that fits in a normal domestic room.
