Would really love to hear your opinions about these two different speaker systems. I want to set up a dedicated HT room in my basement. It is about 20 x 16, one wall open that I'm planning to close in with pocket doors. Room has a drop ceiling and is carpeted.[ATTACHMENT=466]RoBBfloor plan.pdf (98k. pdf file)[/ATTACHMENT] Floor plan is attached. Love listening to music and watching movies and hoping to set up a HT room with a 5.1 surround sound quality that makes you feel like you're immersed in the movie like at a real theater. Will probably be used 80% movies and 20% music. Here is what I'm working with thus far: Denon 2312 CI Cable HD box Roku WII Bluray PANY DMP-BDT220 (tentative on this BR player -- waiting to make this purchase last) Option 1 Definitive Tech System BP-8020ST Front Towers CS-8040HD Center DI 6.5R In-Ceiling Rear This is the system I'm leaning towards but would like to get some feedback on what you all think, given what I'm trying to accomplish. Based on my research I'm comfortable with the pricing as they're on sale and the CI estimate came in below the retailer's sale prices. Option 2 - Episode Snap AV System 700 Series TWR6 Towers 500 Series ES500 LCR -4 Center 300 Series ES300 -IC6 Rear ES-SUB-12-300MB 12" powered subwoofer This system priced much higher than the Def Tech system and to me doesn't appear to be compable to the def tech system; however, I admit I don't know and would therefore like to get some opinions on what you all think if my choice is between these two.. Also, do I need a separate amplifier or is that already included in my AVR receiver? Appreciate your thoughts and any guidance you can offer in helping me to get this HT room set up in a way that would make you all proud of me Robin
