Doug,

All Right! So, it appears there is no Select or Ultra standard for the rear center speaker(s), because they only address 5.1 configurations. I guess I'll just match them to my other surrounds.

And reading between the lines of that press release link, I see that all four Ultra2 surrounds are identical dipoles, At least the Snell system is. Published September 7th, huh? I guess I was asleep when I scanned that page (oops :)

I wonder what the Ultra2 speakers "revision to minimize changes in perceived timbral balance" entails? The original standard already calls for "Timbre Matching" circuitry in the processor.

Do you think "Select2" will follow? Aargh! Stay tuned...
