Thanks for all the good advice everyone. MDREW, the TV price is not part of the $10k. Its a rear projection Pioneer Elite 64" that's 2 yrs old. I also have a Pioneer Elite DVD player. I surfed online at Outlaw's website and priced their 990 Processor and their model 7700 Amp. These seem to be their best separates. The amp generates 200W per channel in 7.1 at 8 ohm and 300W per at 4 ohm. Do any of you have opinions on Outlaw equipment? Is 200W @ 8 ohms enough power for the Epic 80 system for me to get nice clear sound? Price for both is only $3,250 so I don't know about the quality of this equipment. A rep at Axiom gave me Outlaw's name as a place to look for equipment.
