thanks Everyone !
I went with the M60, QS8, VP150 combo. Also, ordered the 25-31PC+ from SVS. The axioms have arrived and am in the process of hookup. Hopefully, everything will come together nicely. The supplied T-bracket with the QS8 is not very wide.... My stud detector gizmo manual says that usually studs are 16 or 24 inches apart, but the QS8 T-bracket is only 8 inches wide so I am unsure how I'll install them.. Any ideas ?

If you can... center the bracket on a stud. If not, make sure any one screw catches a stud and use wall anchors for the others. Not a big deal.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Alan stated that NAD's receivers/amps are fine, and that its their other products (CD players, etc.) that he doesn't trust in regards to reliability/durability.

BigWill - thx for the reply but I am wondering: The QS8s are a hefty 11 lbs (and they are not a non-vibrating art frame either). Are you sure wall anchors on drywall will hold it up with all the vibrating etc ??

audioseeker,

I was as paranoiac as you, and fastened the center vertical portion of the bracket right onto the stud center. I did not even fasten the horisontal "arms" of the brackets, but you can always use additional drywall anchors there.

As long as one or more of your screws catch the stud, where is the speaker going to go? It isn't going to vibrate the screw out of a stud. The wall anchors may take a little weight, but with 11 lbs distributed between a number of them (as well as the screw or screws that are biting into the stud) there will be no problem.
