Are these surround soundbars really an effective alternative to a full 5.1 (ie 5 separate speakers) surround setup? I only ask because I have never owned one nor know anyone that has ever owned one.
@smc8788 - No single speaker solution will ever be as good as a full surround sound system, simple as that. There has been some serious steps forward in virtual surround recently though, with Marrantz in particular bringing some impressive technology to market. That said, most of the virtual surround systems work off reflection, which means that if you don’t have a fairly standard, square room, you’ll never get the best out of them.
I can’t comment on how good the Panorama is, but I’ve yet to find a product from B&W that could be described as bad. Even so, it will be no substitute for a proper amp and a set of B&W MT30s.
