Here I was expecting that I could set up 4 or so speakers and depending on who's speaking, the sound would come out of a different speaker, to give you positional reference to each speaker.

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.
