To all,

Thanks to all for the great posts. The information helped select what I believe as the best sounding AV system (IMHO =8^>).
7.1 surround with
m20ti, vp100, ep125, yamaha rxv1500, onkyo dvcp802 dvd/cd player.

Here is my "issue". I initially calculated the cubic feet of my listening area as 15X18X8 which would qualify the listening area as a medium size are. What I forgot was that there is an adjoining uncloseable office area of 10x10x8. Which would mean that the listening area would classify it as a large area. My awesome wife has so graciously allowed me to upgrade under one condition: that is to put an AV system in our bedroom since the kids tend to "hijack the main system" so this is what I want to do:

1) replace the main m20i's with M60's.
2) replace the ep125 with a ep350 or hsu, velodyne, svs, or outlaw equivalent
3) purchase another vp100
4) convert 7.1 in main room to 5.1 with new equipment
5) install 5.1 with m20i(former mains + former back surrounds), ep125, and vp100 in bedroom.
6) finally sell the bose (ouch!!!!) on ebay (which I purchased before I found audioholics and axiom audio)
