These guys are very knowledgable and have taught me huge amounts of useful info. If money were no option, I would look into the Parasound Halo line up (I can't stop thinking about what I heard at GG, Chess! I want to go back with some of my own discs, but what's the point?). 2x6spds (another member on this board) reported excellent results using factory rehabbed Onkyo 2 channel receivers connected to more expensive processing equipment to power one of his HTs. Might save a couple bucks to at least power the rears with one.

I'm jealous of all you guys with separate HT rooms. If I had bought the house next door I'd have one too. 5hit!
