Just to add to terzaghi's recommendations be careful when hooking up the speakers to keep the polarity correct from the receiver to the speaker, any loose connections and stray wires touching what they shouldn't, can cause some interesting situations and can be hard to pinpoint, although the autosetup programs catch this stuff now.

We are here for you John, just ask.

You will not be disappointed by Axiom's bulk wire, I have 100' of it and it is some of the best wire I have seen.
