I've been really lazy, at a standstill for quite a while. I'm just posting here to say I got a stopgap receiver to last me until maybe the next generation of Anthem is out and, I have money for it. Stopgap again, I should say, since the Onkyo I got prior was supposed to last me until then. I ended up ordering a Marantz SR5010 from Accessories4less. Does it have all of the features I want? Of course not, but it seemed to hit the sweet spot for me right now, and I'll get the more complete package later. I'll be happy to be able to watch Blu-rays again. Right now the only audio I get is from my PC, since I have the analog outputs from the onboard audio going directly to the amps. I have a Blu-ray drive in my PC, as well as the latest version of PowerDVD, but the audio isn't in sync, and I couldn't figure out where to fix that. I bet the problem goes away once I'm using HDMI for the audio again. Anyway, hopefully the shipping is speedy!

Someone told me that Anthem releases products every 2 years, so you will be waiting a while...

But I thought you were single? Why was this the last word on my thread? At least it's still fresh. I haven't posted any updates in a while, and yup, that's because I haven't made any great strides. However, I did just pull the trigger on a pair of M5HPs, in anticipation of eventually moving to a full Atmos setup. I'm going to try them out as side surrounds, replacing QS8s. I may also see how a single one performs as a center channel vs. the current VP180. I saw a 65" LG OLED at Costco last weekend. I want it. Not sure when that's going to happen, but hopefully actually seeing it in person will motivate me to start pinching pennies.
