Bretsky - Regarding your Sony projector, how far from the screen do you sit? I'll be 14-15' back and was thinking of going for 119" (diagonal) screen. Can the Sony handle that? Also, I've heard great things about the contrast and the overall picture, but that the HS5 is not the brightest projector. Now, I'll have total light control, but do you think I need total darkness for the image to be great??

Your Pioneer combo sounds like it does everything you need. Any reason the Denon combo (3805 + 3910 DVD) can't match it?

Yeah, I'm pretty set on using Axioms for the whole system. First of all, it'll just make me feel better that all the speakers are from the same maker...like they're all meant for each other Secondly, the reviews on this board (and others) have me convinced that I wouldn't be happier with anything else near the same price range.
