In reply to:
Is there anything else you wanted to upgrade that might be a better use of the $$$
Naaa... Good job, no kids, no wife, paid off truck, low house payment. Life is good. There's nothing but AVR stuff, fast women (and the obligatory
occasional cheap one), booze, and skiing between now and April. I bought my speakers same time last year, nothing has changed.
I actually bought it because as the thread title said, I didn't want the "what ifs". I owned my last speakers for 19 years, and I figured that there might be a larger room in my gear's future. If I had to do it all over again, and was certain that I'd be in the same house for the next 20 years, I'd have gone with the 100. The 150 probably matches more evenly power wise with the 80s. It's a monster for sure. I've actually had the "what ifs" in reverse... If had the 100, would it have been OK? Most likely, yes.
I got lucky, my tv is 58" wide. The 150 looks like the "right" size up there.
