Interesting the range of feedback so far, seems mostly positive with a few not liking it. I'll give it a try again and try speaker positions etc, but from my previous test I really hope 7.1.3 doesn't become the new firmware.
I'd never really thought about what happens in the event firmware sounds worse (to that user). I'd only ever thought about the firmware idea being good and bringing continuous improvement, but of course improvement to some might be deteriation to others. In a way it's a shame the firmware and sound signatures aren't separate, so that one wouldn't have to lose new features to preserve an older sound signature, but I guess they are fairly firmly intertwined.
