[QUOTE="gt2402, post: 1159255, member: 19970"] If you decide to switch to a 3.1 setup (front, centre and sub), then getting the surround effect will depend on your room setup. You would need to recalibrate the receiver for the new setup. Soundbars will not sound as good as speakers but some can really sound good and may be good enough. You will need to audition per your needs and budget. If you are connecting your laptop digitally to your receiver then you should be getting the 5.1 signal to your receiver. As per Netflix this is all you need for this - [LIST] [*]A 5.1 surround sound-capable audio system. [*]A Netflix-capable device with 5.1 surround sound support. [*]Streaming quality in Netflix settings at Medium, High, or Auto. [/LIST] However not all content from Netflix is surround sound, the description page will indicate if it is or not. If you are going to test your setup check if the content you are streaming has 5.1 audio or not. [/QUOTE]
