Indeed, and the difference that getting the correct adjustments
absolutely correct is significant. Cinema 5.1 systems are set up by a
trained installer and the set-up menus are password protected to stop
the cinema staff from "buggering about" with them afterwards.

And the cinema will have reasonable acoustic treatment - essential for
anything like this to work as intended.

That, too, was noted in my message. Unfortunately, too few home
theaters are so treated.
