I had the same kind of experience at Best Buy, I asked them if they carried any amps, and the kid looked at me like I was from another planet, at that point I just said "I guess that's a no". I've got the Yamaha YST-SW315 that I just pulled out of the garage for the bedroom system, never even plugged it in, planning on setting it up tonight with the Onkyo TX-LR552 that you gave me the link for, arrived today 
A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

>>> Cutting out drywall is the easy part. Making it look like you never did it... that's the part where skill comes into play. <<<
Man you are absolutely correct with this statement ... coming from experience Peter?

Not really. I haven't gotten that far yet. All I've done is cut a hole in the bathroom wall and filled it with a flush-mount TP holder. Looks professionally done, if I do say so myself.

For the record, Bren, I didn't ever call you a troll... I think I poorly chose the expression "trolling the boards" in reference to something which I now forget... Either way, I don't consider you anywhere close to a troll, nor was it my intent to call you one. I again apologize, though.
In re: Best Buy hacking up my drywall, I would have absolutely no confidence that these guys would be able to do more than simply follow the instructions in the manual (i.e., no indendent thought or ability to creatively work around a problem) - which thereafter begs the question of what you'd actually be paying these guys to do. My brother in law took advantage of Tweeter's home installation guys and was only reasonably satisfied with the end result - I can only imagine what would happen if BB showed up to do the work.

No need to apologize, Adrien... 95% of what I say is with my tongue planted firmly in my cheek... not stoking old feuds.
