Hi, I have finally finished with my latest bat with upgraditis! I purchased a new Marantz SR-7500 to upgrade from my Yamaha RX-V995, and Axiom QS8s for the side surrounds (replacing Wharfedale Saphires)and a QS4 for the rear surround. This goes with my Paradigms Studio 40s v2, Studio CC-570, Parasound HCA-1205A, Samson S700, SVS 20-39CSi, and DIY Dayton 12 Sub. The TV is a Toshiba 57HX81 and has been professionally calibrated. All I can say is, it was well worth it!
I love the sound of the Axiom surrounds, they blend well with the Paradigms.
Here are some pics of my room.
I had previously posted here about what route I was going to take with the new surround speakers, so some may have seen that post, well heree is the outcome.

Thanks for your help.
Steve
