I agree it's non-sense to call that system WFS. But I do think it could be an improvement for many listeners. I sometimes think it's useful to think of a spectrum between stereo and WFS. Even 5.1 with a center channel is a step along that spectrum compared to depending entirely on phantom images in stereo.
But I do wish they would discuss it honestly. I also wonder about the 'rendering algorithm' if it is up-mixing from stereo. jim On Sat, Nov 28, 2015 at 1:24 PM, Augustine Leudar <[email protected] > wrote: > yes its marketing nonsense ;) There's no way you could get anything even > slightly decent WFS with only 5 speakers, you might ata push be able to > say you've incorporated Huygens principle but....nah.
