This is very subjective, but yes, I have the impression it is better. Also the speakers tend to disappear as being the sources of the sound and there is less interaction from the room - the sensation that the sound is 'just there' is stronger than for straight stereo. But again, this is quite subjective and may be particular for my setup. If you have the required hardware I'd say: just try it !
