Thanks for the replys everyone . I will probably just get the 60's and maybe up grade the center to the larger one.

I might also look into some of the cutom wood colours or even high gloss?

The fan on the yamaha sounds like a great idea! I had thought about doing that even before I herd of Axiom speakers , I never liked the amount of heat the receiver gave off it had always been a concern.

The HTR 5660 has been a great beginner receiver with clean sound and good high power.Only wish now that it had more HD inputs! Who needs 6 S-video inputs!!! or composite {yellow ones ) I need 3 HDMI and 3 Component inputs! I'll upgrade to a better one once the HDMI comes down in price.

I was also wondering if anyone had gotton special pricing on say bulk speaker cable and banana plugs when they purchased their speakers from Axiom?
