To kind sum up all of the very good thoughts.....
1. A Balance system is a very good place to start. You will be happy for years and get the most out of every piece of gear.
2. Outlaw vs Anthem ~ money vs more money. Are the differences in sound/options worth the money? ….. a personal choice.
3. Outlaw equipment: a manufacture of high quality gear.
4. Anthem equipment: a manufacture of high quality gear.
5. HDMI, currently, is all video. Since the sound side of HDMI is not even out (masses), there are sure to be bugs in first generation. It is a personal choice if you want to pull the trigger. IMHO, When HDMI sound is showing up in the ‘Best Buy’s” of the world – then it is in the masses.
6. Spend time on your surroundings (room) to make sure you get the most out of your system. Include the wife in this area to make life better at home. (To our female gunslingers - your husbands all ready worship you.)
7. In the end, you are the one living w/ your system. Looking into post covering systems, you will find a wide smattering of combinations. All of them are correct .... for each owner.


Have fun and let us know what you have done. If it where me, I would go for the Outlaw and throw in a SMS-1 or a second sub. …Even take the wife out for a dinner and a “movie.”
cool
I appreciate your comments and I think I'll try my luck with the Outlaw's. I've had previous sucess with another Internet HiFi company called SVS. I just need to decide to pair the 990 with either the 7125 or 7500 amp. I'm looking for sonic excellence for the amp I decide to purchase. This for the long term. I Love jazz...John Coltrane!!
