Default B&O stereo setup

Does anyone have the perfect setup for b&0 stereo?? Or is it just a personal preference. Stereo vs surround ?

The big screen TV just isn't the same without surround sound.

Just wait till they find out the new Dodge has 19 (yeah, really) speakers in it... that should bring up all sorts of trolling and whining.

The new system is quite impressive. While in final stages of development for the JBL VSS on the F150, we got the chance to see what was being developed for the Ram (pre 19). Dodge ended up backpedaling and the JBL VSS was shelved as they wanted the "Better Quality" Harman Kardon.....same gear. The F150 JBL VSS development became the B&O and the woofer went back behind the seat.

It was quite interesting being part of the development and seeing how all things under the HK umbrella were 99% identical. Yet each sub brand (JBL/Infinity/Bang & Olufsen) had such different clientele for the same hardware with different aesthetics.
