I am in a market to buy an audio receiver. My 9 year old Yamaha receiver (5.1) is time for upgrade. To be a future proof, I think 7.1 receiver is good although I was told that there are not that many 7.1 soundtracks yet. Then, how does a 7.1 receiver process 5.1 (or 6.1) signal? What comes out of the rear speakers?
Any thoughts? Thank you.
