To be fair CurtisC, the Rotel vs Pioneer on the Kenwood's or Kef speakers is a useless arguement. Unless the OP has money to spend on speakers, sound quality is probably not his main concern, $ and specs are.
I still believe the Rotel would be a better buy over the 1016 in the long run but $300 isn't that big of deal to me. I find it odd that having probably spent $3k on the display and video source that it's a big deal to the OP. Obviously the the purchase was an impulse buy without full consideration to the entire audio/video package. In my case, the audio to video $' spent is almost 10:1
