Well, the wait begins. I finally submitted my FO order for the rest of the system. 4 QS8's, and an EP 600 (V). Lead time for the sub is 3 weeks, and 6 weeks for the QS8's. I have been happy so far with the M80s and the VP150, but feel that something is lacking, when I watch movies...and I attribute that to the surround, and sub.

Anyway, I have learned lots on this forum, just by reading peoples' opinions, reading the documents on the home page, etc. So thanks to all that have helped, either through their own research, or questions.

Tick...tock...tick...tock...as time flies....hehe.

See ya,

Hopefully time will fly.

The EP600 will add a whole new dimension to HT.

Congrats on the order!

Thanks...hopefully, I will have a chance to audition it, once my brother receives his. He upgraded from a 500 to a 600...so, hopefully, I will be able to make it to his place, to check it out. I am sure I won't be disappointed...and hopefully, he doesn't play Star Wars E1, otherwise, his son will run out of the room crying..."But I'm scared of Star Wars..." hehe.

Take care...and thanks.

Thanks...and believe me, so do I. I was going to order them from regular stock...but since we are moving soon, I figured I could wait a little bit of time...and have them shipped to where ever we end up. Plus, it ends up saving a bit of money...in the long run.

As for time, well, yeah, it will move at it's own pace.

Congrats on your purchase, the EP600 should really make a big difference when you are watching some movies.

Thanks. I am sure that the surrounds will help a little as well. The M80's and VP150 themselves are fine, but when viewing a 'helicopter' scene, I think the surrounds definately help a little...and that's where I am missing something.

I did manage to watch a few movies that I rented, and War of the Worlds would have been one of those movies that I would want to watch again, once everything is hooked up...just to compare the actual difference between no surrounds/sub, as compared to having the surrounds/sub. I am sure it will be a totally different story.

Again, thanks...and I am sure time will move right along...since we will be moving rather shortly. Let's just hope the new place is more accepting of the speakers...in terms of accoustics.

see ya,
i.

Whenever you get the system up and running you *may* want to give the neighbors a heads up prior to watching the WOTWs movie ... the 600 will most certainly get the masses gathered for a homeowners association 'emergency' meeting.

Congrats on your new system Inthedeck, you should have a lot of fun with it.

HA! I figure I am going to have to keep the gains down on this one...for sure!

Once we move, I should have a better idea of where the system will be placed. If I have it my way, it will be upstairs, in a smaller room, than downstairs, in a larger room, under which people live. Gotta love accessory apt's underneath the main floor.

Though, from the sounds of it, not too many people will be thrilled, shall I ever become really angry...and TURN IT UP! hehehehe!

Anyway, thanks for the heads-up.

It won't make any difference where it is. The 600 will shake the foundations of your building.
