It's not going to affect me (I have no room for side speakers), but I am very surprised. Unless Meridian has something up its sleeve, this would seem to point to an architectural limitation on the input side of the G68. A bit of a blow for existing owners and Meridian if that is the case, but maybe M is gambling on 7.1 sources not taking off?
