Congratulations on ordering the EP-500. Before ordering it myself, I really wondered if it was worth its cost. Now, I think it's worth every penny, and I am contemplating a second one. You will be very content. The manual is well written but not enough for a proper set up. There are excellent posts in this forum with loads of practical advice which will help you along. I also found the EP-500 owners here to be extremely courteous and helpful. I would be considered a novice but would be glad to help.
I am using the LC-1 subwoofer cable from Blue Jeans (recommended by some here), and I am very happy with it.
Good Luck!
John
