The early Church looks more like the Protestant denominations than the RCC. You mean they had gospel choirs and surround sound?

No they wore gold trimmed robes and pointy hats. They thought this really turned on the young shepard boys.

Not all protestant churches have surround sound though many have choirs, large or small. I have to laugh really at your post because I built such a system for my church( I designed and built the speakers and subwoofer..ect...its amazing what God can inspire with 700 dollars) and the board of trustees is asking me to research and purchase a Projection system...apparently we had money donated for that purpose from an unknown source...we're no mega church by any means...well God wills...
The ancient Temple of Israel had quite a sophisticated choir and orchestra...many of the strange symbols of the Psalms and Old Testaments were musical notations...and discoveries by a musicologist in France in how to decode the musicality of many of the passages of the old testament(much of it could be and was "sung" apparently), led many to conclude that the music in the old Testament times was actually quite modern and contemporary in sound(well over the last 200-300 years or so any-way).
