got my speakers installed today and ive started hooking everything up. man there is a big differents between 200w a channel and 65w a channel. i guess this the price i pay to have a good surround sound receiver. i must admit it does sound good. granted im only listening to satellite radio right now because i havent found a cd player or dvd player yet. im also going from b&w floorstanding speakers to all in wall speakers. only have four speakers right now (sonance symphony 623, 622, they also sound good), im waiting for a deal on a good center channel and back surrounds. oh the price we pay for floor space.
