Thanks for all the kind words. I wanted to post the pics so you could see what I'm up against with my speaker placement. I've re-arranged the furniture twice now trying to get it to look right and be sound friendly, but it still just don't look right. Plus, the 80's do sound different when I move them around. Now I have a sub to content with when it shows up. It's going next to the right speaker as a couch end table.

The HT is in the loft, only on the other side of the house. The loft picture shown is where I'm setting up a drafting area. I have a little beer drinking deck outside that loft. I hope now you know why I had to go with them Bose speakers in the loft.

Thanks for the help with the pics Jack. I'll put up some outside shots later. I have to run to a diner party now. then I'm hosting a B-day party for a girlfriend tomorrow night.......then it's another party Saturday night.
