I've never seen courier companies at work behind the scenes but I have seen luggage handlers in action when I did an OJT period at a major airport.. To say baggage handling is a game to them would be giving them too much credit.

Finally, got the install done. Both bedroom and family room completed. Will upload some pictures soon.
Had a question on receiver setup. I have M80s, VP150 and QS8s. No sub yet. Denon 4802.
What do i set for the speakers..
M80s - Large VP150 - Large QS8s - Large Sub - No
Not sure if this is it. With Sub=Yes, the Bass from M80s was better..any help appreciated.

Hi Avi
I don't have M80s, but I do have VP 150 and QS8s. If you don't have a sub, I'd set the M80s to large and everything else to small (sub or no sub). If you get a sub and have the ability to set the x-over frequency, I'd set the M80s at 60Hz.
G'luck!

Once you set the receiver to sub = no, the mains automatically are set to large and no crossover for them, the rest of the speakers I set at 80hz and see how you like it, then move up or down 10hz and see which way you like it better.
As 2x6 said, once you get the sub then set the M80s to 60 or 80hz depending on your tastes and small setting. I would also still try them set to large and the Sub set for LFE+mains with the crossover still set at 60.
Not sure why with sub =yes, even though you have no sub, would give the 80s a better low end, as you would be cutting off the lower frequencies to them. Could be the Denon isn't powering the M80s well enough the handle the really low stuff.
