There are many varieties of surround. 5.1, 7.1, Dolby (several varieties 
there alone).  Some better than others depending on the 
situation.  Remember the debate on the 5 different systems out there for IBOC?

I don't know which was used in SB 43 last night and it was not promoted 
during the game that I saw.

What I found even more annoying was WW1's feed of the game.  Marv Albert 
was just shy of unintelligible most of the game with the background audio 
SO LOUD.  On big plays, forget it.  It was a mess.  I don't know if that 
was intentional or not.  I know their VP of sports and will ask.  I know he 
will be interested in professional ears...
