Now if it actually works as advertised, I know my wife would be all over this. She can't stand the 6.1 setup I have due to all the speakers.

This is definitely some intriguing technology. I wonder how it compensates for furniture in the room, big dimensions, etc.?

The digital sound projector technology used in this compact system controls the direction of sound from its speakers by focusing it into beams. When sound reflects off the walls in the room, it sounds like there are actually speakers behind and to the side of the listener. These multi-channel sound beams are created using sophisticated algorithms that take advantage of controlled sound dispersions to sculpt the multi-channel experience.
