Thank yo for your replies. I can't wait for the speakers to arrive. How do you guys feel about the standard vinyl cover? I ordered the standard black because we have dark wood floors and furniture, but I'm wondering if I might want to get true veneer.

As you can tell by my equipment, I'm certainly not an audiophile, but I do love good sound. I still have some money left in the budget, so my quandary is, do I use it for a sub, or surrounds? If I go with surrounds, I'm thinking of the QS4s with stands. Any thoughts on these?


Thank you for helping. It's very refreshing to be on a forum where people are supportive and helpful to a newbie, instead of bashing and ridiculing "stupid" questions.

Oh, don't tell my wife what all this is going to cost. Better to beg forgiveness than ask permission!
