See, Told ya I could be corrected.

Magma I haven't seen any DVD's with anything more than 5.1 or THX.

Is this something that only is on HD-DVD's as I have yet to buy any? I have the HD player, but only have a regular TV, with Component inputs.

I believe my AMP is capable of more than 5.1, I'd swear it said 6.1 or 7.1 in the manual (Don't know where it is.) and like I said above, I haven't seen a DVD that supports a higher standard.

Rickster, Glad to see your expanding your price range as I believe you'll enjoy the experience of you Home Theatre ten fold with improved audio equipment.
