I asked him about multiroom and he told me you could only do it with a separate amp. Mistake #1-


Actually DW, this depends on the point of view.
If you use the Rotel 1067 for a 7.1 system then yes, you would need a second amp for another room. If the salesman knew you were only considering a 5.1 setup, then indeed the remaining two channels can power the multiroom config.

their 12g was 1.50 a foot


You know this isn't that bad. Granted you can find cheaper prices, but many of the boutique stores i've seen tend to start around $2-4 /ft for wire and rarely sell anything 'generic'. Even the Axiom wire goes for over $1/ft Cdn. I've found local pricing on 12ga wire for as low as 20 cents a foot, but the sheath was a cheaper plastic, not nicely flexible or finished so i went up to 50 cents a foot to get what i preferred for aesthetics.
