By the way, my main theater is 9.1(7.1 + height).
The sweet seat is @9 feet(8-10 feet) from every speaker. What helps pull that off though is I have an Acoustically Transparent screen.
If your seating is really "all the way back"...no, you don't have room for 7.
In typical purpose built rooms, the "sweet seat"(I prefer to say sweet seat instead of sweet spot) is equal distance from all 5 or 7 speakers. Does that work in all rooms? No. But if you are going to be 13' from the...
I don't know why I included Yamaha...brain fart. The Aventage line, originally, was supposed to be B&M only. But Yamaha about-faced on that decision.
I'm curious as to which NAD this guy is buying. If the 777, hope he doesn't have any non-HDMI sources. Well, none of the NAD scale 480i anyway...
Screen Innovations is not a cheap screen. I have a Screen Research. If you are complaining over the cost they are quoting you for the BD(whichever version you are getting)...ask for a price quote on a Screen Research...and be sitting down.
NAD is great stuff...30% overpriced. But...if you want...
The Epson(as far as the receipts I've seen) sells for the same price everywhere. If you want to pay less, buy the 5020*. Same projector. The 6020 is the B&M version of the "who cares where you got it" 5020.
B&W, which series? If the same as BB(which I doubt), sure there is wiggle room. If BB...
Give you an example of..."good deal, but good luck"...

Elite is B&M only. In case you have no idea what B&M means, it means Brick and Mortar. IE...
And what do you mean "cheaper deals" are out there?
Elite, Yamaha and Integra are B&M sales only.
Paradigm is B&M only as well.
So "cheaper deal" means "what product, where"?
It would help to know the brands.
Integra? Zero wiggle.
Marantz? Some wiggle.
Yamaha? Zero wiggle.
Onkyo? Tons of wiggle.
Speakers...
Paradigm? Zero wiggle.
Polk? Tons of wiggle.
