Actually I do want to sit in the MLP - I just rarely have time these days. I was kinda hoping I wouldn't have to retire just to get a few minutes of free time every now and then, but starting to wonder.
Yep. I'm not entirely sure about the wisdom of spending even more before having a chance to figure out if I actually *like* the omnidirectional sound, but who can resist pre-order pricing ?
Ian's recommendation was to dedicate my 1500-4 to the woofers (using only 2 channels) and add a 1500-8 for everything else... so that's what I did.
