I'm late to this thread, but congrats on the purchase of the 80/500 system. That's what I have, with the VP150 and QS8s in 5:1, and they've been great for three years now (80/20 movies/music). My room is almost the same size as yours: 16 * 14 * 7.5 = 1680 cu ft, and I've not had any problems. I stuck the sub in the front left corner (didn't even do the sub crawl) and even at low power it gives good chest-rattling bass and LFE.
Let us know how things go when the speakers arrive! We love write-ups!

Denon 3808 is a great choice. Axiomites love their Denon . Yeah, I almost don't feel like I belong on this message board with my wildly unpopular Integra. Heh, I couldn't even afford any Newcastle with my Sherwood, but you fellas have been good sports about it.

Thats one nice system Escaron. You got a good price on the 3808. Now comes the really hard part. The wait...

We talk about you behind your back, Fred. A lot. Sometimes in the beer thread we pass around Newcastles and snicker.

If you didn't have the good taste of liking Green Day, and if the other Axiomites wouldn't kill me since they like your cartoons so much, I'd give you what for, you blargle blargle blargle ...

I can see from JP's avatar that my longstanding and perfectly rational cries to "burn him!" are having some effect.
