THX was showing a very slick looking 2.1 system called the Razer Mako that features downfiring speakers. The THX-certified speakers (go figure!) are connected via Cat-5 cables and feature bi-amped satellites (50W x 2 per speaker), 100W sub, and Digital DSP control. The idea of the downfiring speakers is that the listener need not be in the sweet spot to benefit from a full-blown audio experience.
