Sorry Steve…..
…..this reminds me too much of the ‘solutions’ that Peter Pan used to produce 👻
A Speaker 4 solution may be nice, but does not come close to a genuine 5 channel solution.
The loss of a real center channel might not be that noticeable because of the relativly small distance of the R/L channels (phantom center….if you sit right in front of the unit), but it is not ‘the real thing’!
Adding a set of (delayed) right/left channel speakers to the Stage does not give you any real surround (or rear) channels.
No wonder B&O won’t stand up for these workaround solutions!
To me it is either a BS Theatre (with added speakers) or the BS Stage on its own…..at least untill B&O (maybe) rebuilts the Stage and adds processing for surround channels using the Digital Powerlink/Beolink Surround feature with it.
