I'll be patient for the ones that are already on their way, since I already paid for them. (outlaw's just being a little pokey)

I hadn’t seen (Into the Wild) over the weekend. (BTW, Into the Wild is outstanding). Indeed, I watched it last night, it was outstanding. Last year was a great year for movies, cant wait to se 'there will be blood'

Interconnects arrived this morning. Already all wired up. First test at a near reference level was some scenes from Ratatouille on BR. Easily already sounds better than any of our local theaters (tho, in their defense they have a LOT more space to fill with their sound.) (To recap this is the Onkyo 905 as a pre-amp, through the A1400-8, into the Epic 80/600 for 5.1)
Probably the most amazing thing to me so far is how clear and tight all the Foley effects come through. Breaking glass, especially, sounds really clear and in-your-face.

I'm jealous. I just finished listening to your setup (minus ep600) at Axiom on Monday and it does sound very very good.
Enjoy.

BTW, if you want to get scared, tried the second DVD or Return of The King (the battle with all the Oliphants and the horses). That reaches extreme levels, but it does not feel "loud" with the 1400.

Congrats on your new amp, StuntGibbon! We all adjust to the sound of our home theatres, but I distinctly recall the astounding difference I heard when first experiencing my A1400-8. Listening to some of my favorite music was truly an emotional experience.
