At least this is more convincing than BOSE's one speaker surround sound joke.

This is an interesting looking product, but I'm totally skeptical. I imagine the nightmare of trying to fine-tune a good 5.1 sound from 16 speakers. Especially with the troubleshooting side of things; what happens when a speaker blows out? Will the consumer even know? Probably not-- unless he /she runs a utility that tests each of the 16 speakers individually. Sounds like a headache, but possibly a nice step in the right direction as far as the streamlining of entertainment products go. I'm surprised we didn't see Apple do this with one of their displays first 😉
