Jay; What kind of distance are you refering to? The room I have mine in is 26FT long and I have no problem controlling the master with the GE controller I got for my Spacer system. The master is on the opposite side of the room from my switches and it works flawlessly. I wonder if...

Jay, Where did you position your master control box relative to your seating and screen?

My set up is almost exactly what you describe that you want with the exception that I have the m80's in front, M3Ti's in the rear with SVS 20-39 PCi sub. The QS8's are perfect to me for all my listening but exceptionally great for movies. I personally like the effect of the quad surrounds...

I have em and love em. I auditioned many others before choosing to buy and for the money I couldn't find anything else for less than 3 time the cost. But then, that's just my opinion... Mark

Oh, yeah. One other product I looked up that sounds good (I work on computers not electrical thingy's) is the SurgeX SX20-NE/RT. I currently have a 125Amp breaker box on my house btw... Mark

The Intermatic PanelGuard IG1300-4T-2C seems to be the only one that covers power/cable/phone. Since I have identified a buzz in my speakers that goes away when I unplug the cable from the house I think I should cover that. Any other suggestions Chu? Mark

Any recommendations for whole house surge protectors?

Any opinions on this companies isolation transformers? I've used them for clients computer systems when they are in poor power grid areas but don't know if they would work for audio/video applications. www elect-spec com

All I can say is one of the best, most informative threads I've read in quite a while. I for one am going the whole house route. Thanks for all the good information and the education. Mark

Any information on the connection properties of these two. Does the spade have more physical contact area than the banana? Looks that way to me. But then again, banana sure look kewl... Mark

Thanks. The amp is a Rotel RMB 1095. I might be buying the amp to drive front(400W), surround sides(400W), and rear speakers(175W). I will probably get the 2 channel for the fronts(400W). I am also looking at the Parasound and Sunfire. Mark

If the specs on an amp say 200W @8 ohm and 330W @ 4ohm Does that mean that it will not do 6ohm or do they just not list it? Mark

Which is better and why? Mark

Ok... So far I am leaning to Parasound and Rotel. They both seem like good value for the dollar and have plenty of positive reviews. Any other suggestions? Any specific feedback on either brand in the 2 and 5 channel @ 200-400W models? Mark

The more information I get the better off I will be. So maybe more information for y'all would help. Front mains will be 4ohm, center and surround bipols 6ohm, and 8ohm for the rears with a self powered sub. My price point for all 7 channels on my new system will be somewhere around...

Tell me about Parasound and Adcom. Are they good amplifiers? Do you prefer one over the other? Are the cost relative to the performance? Thanks... Mark
