If you were to read all the posts in chronological order, you would see that my main concern was which speakers to match with what surrounds, etc. Ian was kind enough to go a step beyond and try to come up with a package that would suit my budget. He asked me how much I had to work with and I told him. If asking him questions that me may or may not be able to answer about a package that was NOT affordable for me originally is a crime, well then myself and half of the free world should be arrested for trying to get what they want AT A FAIR PRICE, I'm not asking for a donation here, I realize that these companies have to make money. If I have come across as some swindler that's trying to squeeze something out of someone, I'm sorry you feel that way, it truly is unfortunate (coming from someone that works in the retail field as well).
