Jim, Your set-up WILL almost be the same as mine. I now have B&W 703 and will be getting HMT7 later and probaby DS7 or 705 much later on. I am now deciding what amplifier to get. How's the 990/7125 driving your B&Ws?

Blaineh, I read that you (and John W) are using center channels that ARE NOT Magnepans. How is that working out (for each of you)? I am in the process of purchasing Magnepan 1.6s but I am not that please to have a Center Channel that takes up half of my living room (being facetious). I had considerd other Center Channels, however, when I asked the Magnepan dealer about using a center channel other than a maggie they almost all said the same thing. "While it is ok to use a different center channel there may be issues with matching the timbre of the 1.6s." Also, there may be the possibility of the center channel over-powering the maggies. Any suggestions? Or should I go with Gozilla (Magnepan CC3) for the Center Channel and live with it? LOL!
Thanks,
Paladin PS: I am still torn between the Outlaw 990/7700 and the Rotel 1068/1095 combos....ARGH!!!

Outlaw 7700 DefTech: BP 20's main 2 deftech subs clr 1000 BPVX rear surround BP2's side surround (soon to be upgraded to BPX's)
assorted reel to reels(TeacX-2000 & x-700/cassette (Teac c3x)/turntable (Denon dp47/Denon dvd 2200.
I may be imagining things, but the speakers seem to sound a little bit "brighter" and surround sound seems to blend in better. I had two differnt amps (onkyo and adcom) prior to this system. Been playing around some with Dolby IIx music. It seems to work better on some CD's then others. 7 channel stereo sounds pretty good to me however.
